Have you priced those dies my friend? The last time I looked into bullet swaging I was shocked.

Old school way of making bullets, long before they were readily available in the variety we have now and before most on this board were even born. I thought this outfit would be dead and buried 25 years ago, but here they are still. Stuff is expensive as the devil now, wonder how many takers they will have.

Precision bullet forming dies like those used by Bench Rest competition bullet makers run WAY north of $1K and closer to $2K just for the dies. with all the related equipment needed to get into production,most people could afford to buy a lifetime supply of bullets and have enough left over to buy a new gun.

Used pencils, pens, and even a few crayons and can not make the math work on that.

Until you can't buy bullets any more. Then all the gold in the world won't be enough...

I could almost buy a lifetime supply for what they are asking... before I figure in my time.

Besides as you have pointed out in the past; a straight wall case with a lead bullet or black powder will win in the end.
