reloading will not really save you money - you will probably find out that you can just afford to shoot more with the same $$$ which is not bad either.

you may find out, though, that, once you get the hang of it, your own QC will result in better quality, more consistent ammo that is more accurate than off the shelf gun candy.

if you look around for hard cast lead bullets and a cheap 8lb keg of a decent powder, you may get a plinking or practice load well below the afore mentioned $16 per 50.

HS-6 and bulk primers can be had for a lot less if you get together with buddies and place a bulk order, e.g. with Powdervalley.
