if you are going to reload for range practice, i would suggest using lead bullets. i purchase from Missouri Bullet, and 9MM round nose go for about $26/500. they ship flat rate, so if you order 4 boxes it cost the same as one box. Powder about $20/lb. Start with something like Accurate #2 for range loads and practice. Several guys here told me use lighter loads for practice. I was shooting Blazier @ $10/50, calculated reloads to go $5/50. Plus, i now have a new hobby. don't be afraid to ask questions on this forum, these guys are very helpful!!! good luck and nice man cave.
