In just four loading sessions, I have loaded up every piece of spare brass I have.  What on earth will I do with all this extra time?  This is just depressing...



Time to go shooting so I can get more empty brass to reload!!!

It's not a full-blown sickness until you start thinking of buying ammo to shoot up just because it has really nice brass.

sometimes I feel the only reason I shoot is that so I can reload..

I started reloading so I could shoot better ammunition more frequently, but I have to say,  I have enjoyed reloading as much as actual shooting.  Go figure.

Become a larger brass whore Thats what I did, Ended up with a few hundered pounds of brass to sort thru and try to make an educated guess on which one is best.

 It will run you up a wall trying the different combos.  That what I like about this hobby

I used to go home depressed about how much money I spent on factory ammo after my shooting sessions.  Sometimes I wouldn't even go to the range because I didn't have the $200 to blow on ammo, and fall deeper into depression.

Now I go home HAPPY because I have buckets full of brass to reload!!!!  

RELOADING - It fights depression - THINK ABOUT IT!!!


HAHAHA!!!  Someone should make a commercial with this in mind.

I knew what you were going to say the moment I looked at the subject line on this thread.   I have been there so many times.  I always seem to run out of something while I load.

Save about 100 or so cases, bullets etc... reload them one at a time. You will soon learn to love that progressive. Plus, one at a time always gives you something to do. 20 now 20 later and on and on. You also get better results. Especially with rifle loads.

You do go through components fast.

I am always on the lookout for brass and components for a good price.

My feelings are in my sig line....

Buy one of those Lee Classic Loaders (the one you need a mallet to use). Anytime you are getting low on components, break that out.

Send your press to me so I can use it until you have more brass to load..

Thats a nice problem to have!
I always grab all the good brass I can at the range so I don't run out. Now I just need more powder and bullets and primers.

Buy your components by the "Shit Load"
When you use up HALF of the lowest quantity component, order more of EVERYTHING.
This will let you stay ahead of the curve.

All of sudden you will realize that you have 60k primers, 50 plus lbs of powder, 30k cases and 75k of projectiles.
