Reloading for .357 magnum worth it?!

[Bitumen]

I reload for .357 magnum with a 158 gr bullet. A guy the other day tried to argue with me that it wasn't worth reloading for .357. I told him he was mad. I buy the bulk bullets and reuse my brass. I remember when I first got a .357, I checked into buying loaded cartridges in bulk and reloading was for sure cheaper. I asked him what it costs him for 100 rounds and he said he couldn't remember. I can produce 100 rounds for about $26. CanadaAmmo has 50 rounds for ~$25.

Costs me the same to reload .357 than it does to reload 9mm and I just calculated it today, I can do 1000 rounds for $130, brass not in the equation.

It's cheaper to reload, but remember reloading isn't all about cost savings.

What a clown!
I totally avoid to argue with this kind of ignorant specimen.
They try to question everything, but they don't know the most basic facts.

My feeling exactly. Guys that can't back up their argument with some facts and figures i ignore.

Couldn't agree more.

Using cast it costs me $7 per box of 50.

Meh, not worth arguing over. If you want to reload, jump in feet first. If you don't, thats cool too. Sounds like arguing for the sake of arguing.

Gun folk don't seem to be happy unless they're pissed off at each other, or at least making sure the guy next to them is wrong about something.

I think there is much truth to that.

Not only is it much cheaper but have way nicer loads. I like knowing what I am shooting.
