Reloading 223 cost

[Stingray]

Been studying on reloading 223, but the more I look into it , I'm finding out that it not much more per round to just buy them by the 1000s. What say ye reloaders

if you count your time at say 20$ an hour it will be cheaper to buy it loaded but I still just like loading my own,,probably would if it even cost more,

I mainly load the 69 SMK or the Hornady 75 BTHP though so if your shooting 55 FMJ the numbers will be different.

I don't remember ever figuring it up. :lol: I guess if I was looking at everything being cost efficient I would have quit shooting ,hunting, fishing and camping a long time ago.

I do like my results for reloading for hunting a lot better than what I was buying.

If you are just shooting ball ammo for plinking, it isn't worth it. If you are loading match ammo, or hunting ammo it is definitely worth it
