    Or remove intelligence.

    Even if you found a way to somehow replicate the 'best'/'match grade' primers from stuff you get over the counter (which you can't, unless you have been watching too much Breaking Bad), the time/effort/money investment would probably work out at more than 10 USD per shot for the first thousand (unless you consider time and effort to be 'free'- it isn't).

    Scraping some strike anywhere match heads or cap gun fluff into a mixture which is then poured out onto a spent primer cup that you have knocked flat again, annealed , and reshaped the anvil over, just to make a 'BANG' isn't success in my book.

    Better take up archery and bowhunting instead.

    Yes archery may be your best option.
    Or knitting perhaps.
