Re: David Tubb .308

Thanks for the input. What are the cost's for reloading like this such as for .308 etc.? Especially the coating. Is that a hard process?
Thanks again,

Do you reload? If not, you'll have start up costs anywhere from $400-$800 for either a single stage press and accessories, or a progressive with accessories. Probably more, if you get some of the other 'semi-neccessary' tools.
A box of Lapua 308 brass might set you back $75 with shipping, but say you get 10-15 cycles out of it, that price drops over the lifespan of the cases.
Bullets are disposable, so what...500ct boxes are $145 for the 175 SMKs?
Leaddog got a good price on Federal 210M primers, as I'm at $43 with tax, for a thousand.
Powder for me, in Miami is about ~$24-$26 by the can, so 150 rounds per pound.
Boron-Nitride powder is $20 for a baggie that does lots and lots of bullets and finally, $3 for an ammo box?
