    I ran across a used Ruger LCP for 175.00 so now I need to feed it. [;)]

    I bought 3 boxes Remington 95 gr. FMJ for 17.95 /50rds. at a Big R in Northern Illinois
    It was the first .380 I have seen in a couple months.

    I'm someplace over 2000 rounds on hand, so haven't been shopping lately. Did notice at a gun show Saturday that commercial reloaders were selling it at $14/50 rounds or $13.50/100. New stuff started from $20 and ran over $25.

    I make it for about $7.00 per box of FMJ-flat point. JHP costs me $8.00 per box. Unique powder, CCI SP primers.

    Been trying to talk myself back into reloading. I've thousands of empty brass cases in all the calibers I shoot. Just lack space for a bench. A co-worker has offered to loan a box full of gear he inherited, but doesn't want to sell (I previously loaned him the 9mm dies I still have).

    Will take me a little while, seems likely I'll get it going.

    Hard to find.. We have had very little in the last 3 months.. Usually $17-19 a box of 50 ..DO not buy the $14.00 Tula/Wolf crap if you see it.. No good for the gun..

    What brand of bullets you using? The cheapest I've found is 0.45 a round (loaded) shipped. I need to find the stuff to load up my own. I just need dies, brass & which ever bullet I choose to go with. I'm gonna use Bullseye & ramshot silhouette powder.

    Is it just really dirty ammo or what?

    I haven't reloaded any .380 in a while but the last time that I did it was costing me approx. .12 cents a round.
