Funny stuff Chuck. True, but funny.

Lets ask. Hoser, ballpark figure, how many 5.56 do you normally reload in one year?

As many as it takes....

As a rough wag, I go through 1-2 cases (6K per case) of Hornady 55s a year and a barrel or two in my main rifle. I also go through 1,200-1,500 Sierra 69s.

Bolt gun ammo I might load 2,500-3,000 rounds. Sometimes more, sometimes less. Depends on how many Prairie Dogs and Coyotes are out and about.

My 9x19 and 40 usage is a lot. Maybe 4-5 cases (3700 per case) a year. And thats down huge from what is was in the late 90s and early 2000s.

Shotgun used to be a lot. A lot. Then the closed the range on base and it became a pain to shoot skeet/trap/5-stand/SC.

I would load rimfire ammo if I could.

So, how about them Broncos?
