First you are comparing lead bullets with jacketed bullets, primers are not 350 for 1k if you include hazmat and you forgot
about cases.
And you still have to pick up 5000 cases from the ground when you are done.
Match grade ammo? are you weighing every charge?
Jesus dude, I'm not the one comparing anything. Anyone can run lead or copper, not my problem you chose the more expensive one that has no real advantage for practice. Coated lead from reputable a manufacturer is going to yield more than accurate results for most competition pistol applications. I'm talking 2-3" groups at 25yds with a pistol, repeatable headshots at 50yds. Go to any competition that isn't bullseye and everyone will be running coated lead if they reload, with the exception being open class since they use comps.
Primers cost whatever the hell they cost when you buy them. No shortage of options and not everyone has to buy primers offline. I've gotten primers from 3 different local places, one being Cabelas, ALL for $90 or less per 1k, with a decent amount being $50-$60 per k. I've bought primers offline for $70 and $80 per k plus hazmat split over the whole purchase.
I told you what 5k would cost me to make match grade ammo for my needs. LOL, match grade rifle ammo is not the same as match grade pistol ammo. My ammo is as accurate, but mostly MORE accurate, than any factory round I've tried. The only exception being my expensive carry ammo.
Yes, I have to pick up cases, which are FREE. It's not that hard. I spend 10-15m picking up brass after local comps and probably pick up 500-1000 cases in that time, more if its a match with a lot of static positions. Brass is the least of my concerns.
If you don't think it's worth it thats fine, you do you. But I know what it costs to make my shit, and I'm not special. Plenty of other guy are spending about the same, give or take.
