reloading 22 long rifle

Interesting article on reloading 22 LR.  Here is the link:

That is a pretty cool idea. For the time being, I guess I will continue to pay $0.10 per round for the 22.

I was joking with some friends a couple of months ago how about reloading 22, but I am glad to see somebody is figuring it out.

I just read that and was a little underwhelmed. The article posed the idea as an option for 'target shooters' but then said little other than accuracy was not great. Perhaps a follow-up article that looked into obtaining useful accuracy would have been (could be?) useful. At $150 for parts and tools to allow you to make crappy ammo (not to mention that it did not fit CCI brass) - no thanks.

I remember reading in old issues of the American Rifleman about people in Europe having to resort to these sorts of measures. I never thought that I would see the day that it would start to make sense in America.
