Yeah, I could have pointed out that my $4 a box reloads that I compared against cheap WalMart value pack shells are made with quality components; Hogdgon Clays powder, Magnum shot, Winchester primers, Claybuster wads, and Gun Club hulls.
An important benefit of reloading for me is the ability to make up low recoil ammo, such as 7/8 ounce 1200 FPS loads. The few times I bought some of that stuff it easily ran $9 to $11 (Winchester AAA low recoil). If you shoot a semi that may not be much of a concern for yoy, but I shoot a relatively light weight pump and I neither need to develop a flinch nor some kind of repetitive trauma shoulder problem.
