Reloading Equipment -

[huskyboy]

I have been shooting for the past few years.. mostly 9mm and .40cal..
And I always purchased my bullets from wolf bullets.. .

I am just doing the math... is there any worth in reloading my own- It seems pritty close to the same price I can get them from him...

I have about $1500 to blow on reloading equipment... but I am not sure if its going to be much cheaper?

Thoughts? also - Which is the best bang for your buck in reloading equipment...

You will save some $$ by reloading but the best part is you can customize your loads for if you compete.
Dillon 550 is a very good kit and if you live close to the border you can order it in the US and ship to US address like Hagen's of Blaine here on West Coast and save on shipping and tax (it's less in the US) and bring it across duty-free as reloading equip. is legal and duty free to bring into Canada.
You can also join a US range and pick up free brass after police or customs guys' practice to save even more. You'll need ATF6 form which you can get in ~1-2 months after you fax it in. You'd be advised to get Alaska small game hunting license (US$20) and an invitation letter from US range for their events.

Its definately worth it if you shoot a fair bit. The initial start up cost (like any hobby) can be substantiative but it will pay for itself. I also love doing it. It's a great past-time for when you are not at the range.
Equipment wise I would recommend a Dillon 550b and an RCBS chargemaster.
