[QUOTE="Old Fart, post: 1803809, member: 4899"] I've been doing this reloading thing for many years (40+ yrs). First rifle I bought was a 7.7 Ariska when I was a kid and ammo wasn't cheap. Had a nieghbor teach me how to reload. I've still got the Lee hand pounder I used for it. Later to save money back when I shot competitively I upgraded. Now days it keeps me busy on slow days. I have and use 3 single stage and 2 progressive. I've got brass that I've shot more than 20 times. It's not hard to pay for equiptment in a short time if you shoot much. And as some have stated most rifle and big bore pistol return the savings very quickly. My plinking round for 38 spl run me around $2.50 or less a box using my home cast bullets. I buy bulk components every couple years to offset inflation and stay stocked. Casting your own bullets saves big bucks and is relatively cheap to get into (Lee products). Just watch and see what happens to ammo and components if it starts looking like our prez will get re-elected. Favorite powder is Unique. There's tons of applications for both handgun and rifle.
