I can't speak to all those calibers, and I don't frequent local gun shows. I do know that the cheapest factory ammo I have found is Perfecta brand at Wally World. The 9mm comes in at a few cents under $10. The .38 special is $15, IIRC. It might be $16, but I'm pretty sure it's the former. At my local store supplies are spotty.

I load my own, so I don't worry too much about factory prices, unless it's something I either need factory for, or I need the brass to reload, and that is the cheapest route to it. I have used the Perfecta in .357 and 9mm and have had good luck with it. Brass cartridges, made in Italy.

I don't know about the other loads you mention, but case lots of US-made 9MM-NATO are presently running between .22 to .25 per round, depending on who you buy it from and what kind of shipping deal you're getting.
