I already had the 28 gauge reloader for sporting clays so it was easy to get my TSS loads going. I load 64 loads per 6 pounds of TSS, $252. The rest cost me $200 to get enough wads and primed hulls. I have enough powder and PSB to last me a lifetime. So my cost was $1000 for 200 rounds. I only have to buy shot, wads and hulls to continue. The next 200 will be around $900.  I don't figure my time into the price because I enjoy it and it makes it affordable for me and the wife to shoot a sufficient amount to keep sharp. Reclaimed shot does not shoot as well as new. But it is an acceptable replacement to pattern our guns to the point of saving a box or 2 every year.

There is just something special about harvesting a tom turkey with a shell that you hand loaded !!!!!
