    Default Looking for a good place to buy 38 and 357

    Wallmart seems pretty high in these two calibers. Is there a magical place to buy these that I am not aware of? Thanks.

    Honestly, Wal*maret, along with others, seem way high on all ammo recently. Might be a good time to start thinking about reloading. .38/.357 brass is always plentlyful, as are hardcast bullets ($33.00 per 500 at the show today) and you really dont use a lot of powder in these rounds.

    At the following numbers:

    $33.00 500 bullets
    $ 3.49 per 100 primers
    $19.99 per pound of powder

    I'm coming up to around $5.76 per box of 50. I know you have the additional cost of a tooling, but after it's bought it doesn't take long to see the savings.

    Online check out Mastercast (http://www.mastercast.net/index.html). They have some very good prices on their remanufactured bullets-I have shot them without any problems. And if you send them brass, you even get a cheaper price.

    Ammoman has 1000 rounds of Federal .38's delivered for $260. I plan on buying some and then saving the brass so it can be sent to mastercast.

    I bought some .38 special LRN like 2 months ago for $12.50....I didn't think that was too bad...

    g/fs Dad is going to be reloading/selling .38, .357 and .44 magnums soon.

    andrewjs18,
    FYI to pass on to g/f dad. If he is going to reload and SELL he has to have a FFL (Type 6 - Licensed manufacturer of ammunition and reloading components other than Armor Piercing ammunition). IIRC it's about $30 to get. And then he would need a PA Sales Tax license, etc., etc.
