    Bullet cost for 9mm

    I was in Sportsman's Warehouse the other day. I took a look at the reloading items and noticed some 9mm bullets at $200 for a thousand... On sale! That's nuts! 20 cents a bullet?! I find 9mm rounds at 26 cents each at Murdoch's etc. Why would any reloader pay that? By the time you add primer and powder, it wouldn't be worth your time... I thought component prices would come down, not go up...

    I bought 2500 9mm FMJ 124 grain bullets from Powder Valley @ 8 cents each with free shipping last week. Now with powder prices up, it still may not be worth reloading 9mm. Until ammo prices reflect price hikes due to powder increases... Problem is, I haven't been able to get to the range as much as I would like. Anyway, I digress, reloading component costs are all over the board...
