I've often ponder the thought of starting to reload my own shells but, I just can't justify the cost of buying all the equipment and materials necessary to reload and the space to do it is very limited. Not only that but, all the time and energy put in more hobbies would put a strain on the average joe's life style sort-of-speak. Until the prices go down I'll just have to keep on bargain hunting. That's just me thou.
