I've been delaying that for 20 years for some reason. It was always cheap enough not to mess with but I've decided to do it. I ordered 3000 mixed/polished brass for $198 shipped from https://elitereloading.com
When I order cast bullets, I usually go with http://missouribullet.com. Would like to find a good bulk lead bullet option. Any thoughts there? I don't cast enough yet to handle volume shooting.
Best price I have found on 124 gr bullets is $64/1000. NT

Not cheaper.
...but most of my bulk 9mm & 45 bullets come from https://www.ibejiheads.com
He comes to our range for matches and we can often save money having him bring them. Once a year or so we do a bulk order and pick them up.
Nice guy and a BIG supporter and match sponsor in Area 7 & 8 USPSA.
Thx for the option. Not bad for coated/shipped. NT

I have had mixed results with commercial cast in th e9mm. See if you can find some sized bigger that .355-366. I size all of mine .358 Andy cast them semi hard and they generally shoot good. I have ha days better results with powder coated in the 9mm than some other calibers as well.
I picked up 1000 Berrys plated 124gr for $65 or $69 plus shipping the other day. So I probably will be shooting those for a while.
That's a good price for Berry's. Normally $10-15 more. NT
