[QUOTE="DaveB, post: 4628625, member: 5958"] Reloading is my hobby. I also fish, hunt, used to bowl, used to read a lot, still have a very green thumb. I have a fair selection of calibers and really like the pursuit of accuracy. As for money. Hmm. Factory ammo for some calibers (7mm08, 300 WinMag, 22-250, 280) is quite expensive. And if you want a premium bullet the pre-loaded ammo gets to be something you need to plan for in the budget. I used to think reloading a pistol round was not worth the effort. Then I stumbled across a Dillon from a member and time to create a single round dropped to near zero. It was amazing. Component prices need to be carefully shopped but remember, strike while the iron is hot. GRAF's haz mat fee is currently at 10 bucks and for the moment, no sales tax. Powder Valley is another. BrassmanBrass sells .224 bullets at one of the lowest prices around with no tax and cheap shipping. If you can buddy up the savings mount up. More importantly. Events have shown ammunition & components can be unobtainable. The shortages of 2008 and 2012 can be repeated with a single election. Don't get caught short. [/QUOTE]
