I mean, I'm only shooting a hundred a month maybe (~70 last weekend), so it's rapey, but not *too* rapey.

Divorced in 2017 so I could actually buy firearms, and I had to wait until THIS YEAR to actually get around to it.
As soon as supplies are back in stock, you should be able to hand-load for about $0.60 per round and have ammo that is better than what you can buy. Lapua brass can be reused at least 10x and a good press and scale and everything needed will run another $600 or so for good quality stuff. Roi comes pretty quick if you shoot more than occasionally.
