Rick, you made me choke on my oatmeal.Originally Posted by cbrick
I'm with Al & smokeywolf but also sean penn, I am destroying all my guns and related equipment for all 30 calibers. Only then will the world once again be a beautiful place where cougars and Bambi can romp & play together, every rainbow will have a pot of gold, all evil conservatives see the light and our wonderful leader obummer will be elected to his tenth term.

Like a lot of folks that reload, I load about 12 rifle cal. & 3 shotgun, & pistol, haven't ever sat down and done this exercise in the past, what is the point ???? Jim

Pick you one caliber, use a Lee Loader, Lyman 310 or some such. It is slow but will help you remember who you are & will do volumes for the healing process. There is life after divorce. Wish you the best soldier.

I don't paint bullets. I like Black Rifle Coffee. Sacred cows are always fair game. California is to the United States what Syria is to Russia and North Korea is to China/South Korea/Japan--a Hermit Kingdom detached from the real world and led by delusional maniacs, an economic and social basket case sustained by "foreign" aid so as to not lose military bases.

My hobby mission at the outset was to involve myself so deeply in the ammo production end of shooting activities that I would lose track of the number and nomenclature of the calibers I rode herd on. Mission accomplished, years ago. The only accurate way to list them all is to sit at the bench, where I can view all of the die boxes in order to get the listing straight. I did delete 4 calibers last year, added 1 and re-started another that had been dormant for about 15 years. I'm not a complete cartuchophile.

Stopped by here looking for some info on 45 & 30 cal cast bullets, and I'm still reading.
"Never argue with idiots. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience." Mark Twain
Over the years many have come and a few have gone. I currently load for 20 metallic cartridges. I quit loading for shotgun a few years back as the games got too expensive for my retirement budget.

Looks like there's more than a few who reload for a lot!
At present I'm reloading for....

I think that's about it! Might have missed one or two!
Everything with an "#" beside it indicates that I cast for that cartridge/calibre in differing weights and also dry powder coat.
The 12ga was initially crimped but the majority of what I reload in 12ga now, is roll crimped 2.75" for use in Single Action shooting.
