I only started collecting a month and a bit ago, and have over 100 lbs in scrap and ingots. In that time I have 1000 rounds cast for 9mm and 750 for my rifle. I am going out today to get more at the range, as the berm is full and the bullets can be picked right off the surface.
I think buying lead while it is high is a a risky investment.
Remember? Buy low, sell high.
