Do any of y'all reload? I have been reloading since I was 16 years old and have lots of old brass which needs cleaning up and can be put back in service. However I figured I would purchase a new stock pile of brass for my .22-250 and .308 along with bullets and get back into some tack driving with purpose. I just searched two different companies I have used in the past, Midway USA and Natchez Shooting Supply and both are out of stock of almost every type of brass out there. Looks like the old brass is going back in service! :-)

Nothing like setting at the loading bench working up a couple hundred rounds.

I've been reloading since I was 16 too. My Dad has reloaded for as long as I can remember. We always pick up any brass that we find at the range. If we don't reload it, someone we know probably does! LOL! I find it very satisfying to hunt with my reloads and kill with bullets I've loaded. My next goal is to kill with a reload with a cast bullet that I cast.

That is so awesome Jeff. I started out on and old wooden teachers desk my dad had from the 1950's. He did not reload let alone hunt. No one knows why I started hunting and shooting so much, dad could care less about it and to my knowledge never harvested a single animal in his whole 53 years on this earth. Mom on the other hand was a great cook and she cooked almost anything I brought home.

I would like to learn how. My dad didn't reload but I was fascinated by the reloading equipment I saw at gun shows.

Ive been working on getting into it. We reloaded shotgun shells in a progressive reloader when I was a kid. I just recently learned how to do rifle and pistol ammunition from an older retired Marine near here. He said come on by when I wanted to use the equipment. I just picked up a new pistol and I have two buddies that bulk buy reloading supplies so I was thinking of getting into it. I don't have any saved up or I would offer it to your guys, but I do have another Marine friend that works at shoot smart and picks up brass all the time. If you are looking for an odd type brass, he might be able to find it.

I'll talk to my friends tomorrow and see if they have any. The shoot smart guy is deployed for a couple of weeks but should be back first week of May. He has lots of contacts so I can see what he has going on. I'll let ya know Tony.
