I buy Ammo. I already spend 2-3 nights a week in the garage cleaning and tinkering with my guns. If I needed one more night to make Ammo the wife would divorce me.

Cheap, relatively smoke-free coated projectiles. Lately SNS and Blue Bullets.

Titegroup for pistols, spherical ball powder for .223

Any brass that isn't cracked or asymmetrically bulged.

Small rifle primers, so that I only need to buy one type. Also beneficial because small rifle primers are frequently cheaper than small pistol primers. I prefer CCI.

I am considering doing something different for major match ammo. Like jacketed projectiles from Precision Delta and sorted range brass. At nationals this year I had a case web blowout that cost me 4-5 seconds delay.
