I've reloaded for years, scores of years Never with lead though. With supplies harder to find I decided to get some lead bullets for the 380acp I bought from a person here a month or so ago. Finding recipes for 95gr 380 lead with the powders I had on hand wasn't easy but I ended up making 6 with Bullseye that didn't blow up and felt about the same as the factory loads. Yeah!!! BTW, I found the bullets in stock at a place in Florida that doesn't use the Internet but once a day to check email. Imagine that Can't sell out as fast if you aren't on the net.
