Over the years I have heard it said that reloading 9mm isnt worth it. I began reloading in 2014 so the big 2012-2013 ammo shortage was still fresh in my mind. I figured if I am going to load my own, I might as well load for everything I shoot. I had seen all ammo go up in price then eventually dry up. Even though I can load 9mm only a little cheaper than late 2019 prices, my decision to load it was more about availability than price. Now with 9mm prices havering around 50 cents per round, I am glad I load it. I used a 124gr FMJ bullet made in house by Rocky Mountain Reloading for these, along with 5.5gr of Power Pistol. These run nice in any gun I have shot them from with plenty of accuracy and moderate recoil.
These cost me 13.2 cents per round. If I used my Hi-Tek coated bullets my cost would be closer to 11.5 each
