You will find that you can reform existing cases to make new Spitfire cases once you get into reloading. A basic set-up can be had for around $150 dollars. Once you learn reload, you'll find it doesn't really save you any money, but you'll do a lot more shooting for the same $! Warning....reloading is addictive! BTW, you should be able to cut the cost for your ammo to around 25 to 30 cents per round. Won't take long to recover your initial costs. You may have to custom order your dies. They might be a bit more expensive than standard dies, but they will be worth the money.
