Greetings Trout,
Using a cheap plated projectile like the Frontier 150 grain and a reduced load about $20.00 a box of 20. Closer to $30.00 a box of 20 for the cheapest soft points. This is not much less than the cheapest factory loads and does not include anything for the case. Why do I only use handloads? A ridiculous question and I will get back to you once I have thought up a decent answer. Seriously for many of us loading our own is a significant part of the hunting and shooting experience. The more honest of us don't pretend we are saving any money.
