    Recently picked up a 32acp...

    So I need to pick up components for it. I already have a decently supply of small pistol primers from the other rounds I already load. I found once fired, cleaned and polished brass for about $0.08ea shipped online. I am just trying to find a decent price on bullets. Lead, plated or FMJ, just trying to keep the cost down. Cheapest I have found so far is about $76/1000 shipped on the Berry's website for 71gr plated, just wondering if anyone else has a source on anything with a lower cost. Thanks.

    That's a good price... I've looked at a few of the websites I use and they're all more. I don't think you're gonna find a better price and if you do it wont be more than a few bucks

      I hope you have tiny fingers.. those small calibers can be a challenge to load.. the smallest thing I have patience for is the 32 S&W long.. 32 acp is something I don't bother with anymore..

        luckily I don't plan on shooting it too much. My the gun is a KelTec P-32 and its my BUG for concealed carry and I only plan on shooting about 50-100 rounds a month through it just to stay proficient with it, so I will only be loading to supply a small amount of ammo a month, just don't feel like paying $16-18 a box for practice ammo in such a small caliber.

          I have a Colt 1903 in .32acp, I don't load for it, cases are just too small for my fingers on a single stage.

            Well, I'll be holding off on loading it for a little bit, managed to find someone local who will be selling me ~550 rounds of 71gr FMJ for $100, after subtracting what my brass was going to cost me these are going to be slightly cheaper than what my reloads would have cost me. Means I can hold off for a bit on buying bullets, and this is all the brass that I should need for a while.

            I freaked out a little bit earlier too, since I needed to pick up a few boxes for this weekends range trip, wanted at least 100 rounds to familiarize myself with my newest gun so I can start carrying it. Walmart wanted $24 per box of 50 for WWB, which was all they had for 32acp. Was about to regret buying this gun until I came up on this deal and remembered my reloads would cost me 1/4 what the new stuff costs.

            Luckily I don't have the largest of hands so I can deal with the hassle of loading a smaller cartridge.
