Hayes and associates have the cases for $1.50 each. I got some 405g lead proj for $15 for 50. So 30 cents each on trade me.
I know of another who sells them and the 500g proj for a little bit more.
I brought some hornady factory rounds to get me started and will reload the cases from there with trail boss and 405 and 500g proj.
Trade me seems to have some reasonable prices for the projectiles.

Jacketed proj retail for about 65 cents each.
