The Reloading Bench

I find that on those high end rounds that I can save 80% on the cost per round. I on the other hand don't save any money because I'll shoot 5 times as much. That is a good thing!!
I do load 9mm and save maybe $70 per 1K..... for the time and effort my labor is maybe 25¢ an hour. :LOL: Loading them I can try a lot of different bullets and powders to see what works best for me and my weapon.
Retired I like the quiet time. You'll never get a DUI exercising your arm reloading!! :ROFLMAO:
 
I agree

I’m interrupting my reloading to post this.
I load 380 ACP, 9mm, 357 Mag (with 38 Spl loads), 40 S&W, 45 ACP, and 300 Blackout.
I have dies to load 458 SOCOM, but no materials or cases to do so...just getting ready.
I have a Hornady Lock & Load Classic single stage, and a Lyman All American 8 turret press.
Favorite powder is VV N320, but since I can’t find it in stock my GoTo is HP-38.
Why the Specials in the Mag cases????
 
Softer shooting and I have plenty of Mag cases, and only a handful of .38 Spl cases. I picked up the idea in another reloading forum and liked it, so thought I’d give it a try.
Ok, I understand..... guess I'm the only one with a boat load of 38 cases. Granddaughter's favorite round so I had to have plenty on hand for her!!
 
Sounds like a great idea. I think I now have 40 sets of dies in the reloading shed. 😁 I started out loading 38 Special and 357 Mag with Lee hand loader around 1970. Think I still have boat load of both.

This is something I would like to get into and don't know much about. I own several handguns and rifles whose rounds are somewhat expensive to buy (338 Lapua, 50AE, 50 Beowulf, 458 Socom, 6.5 Grendel, 6.8 Spec, 450 Bushmaster, 454 Casul, have I missed any :unsure:). I also think it would be a great hobby to take up in my retired life.
I have 6 different bullets in the 338, text me and I'll help you if you need any info!
