I would be interested in being part of a group buy, for all the calibers mentioned. My preference would be .357 Mag, and .223/556
Then the all the others in any order
.45acp, 9mm, 7.62x39, 38spc. I'd also be interested in 12 Gauge shotgun too. |

You should really try reloading, I can load 357 for under $0.10 a round.
45 and 9mm a little higher due to the bullets are a bit more unless you don't mind shooting lead.
Jacketed bullets run a bit higher, I can do 9mm for $0.15 and 45 for $0.20 or such. |

I do reload. I only see serious $$ savings when reloading large caliber rifle ammo. I do reload 9mm and 45acp because my reloads are more accurate than factory stuff and because there is more tangible savings when reloading defensive ammo. But for plinking, I buy factory stuff, like USAAmmo. At $0.03 savings, it would take over 6500 rounds of 9mm to break even on a cheap $200 reloading setup (far more for a nice progressive setup)...not to mention the time it takes to reload 6500 rounds.
That said, all my reloaded 9mm uses the factory reloads from USAAmmo. Straight-walled cartidges last forever.
FWIW, I would be more interested in a group buy on reloading components. Through my shooting club, I can get a 5% discount on bullets from Missouri Bullet. Shipping on lead ain't ever cheap. |

I get good prices on lead from SNS casting.
Jacketed I get from Montana Gold. |

Yes, they sometimes run good deals. It's a live inventory system, so what shows in inventory is what's actually available.
FWIW- I've used several thousand rounds of the Military Balistics reloaded 9mm from LG without any issues.
(I've wanted to try the USAammo reloaded 9mm, but they seem to be out of stock most times.)
