Handloaders in the building

[miketrinidad]

I’d love to connect with others who are serious about reloading. I’ve reached my limit with factory ammo and I’d love to start making my own. Is that a significant part of the hobby for you?

I got into reloading when there was an ammo shortage and I never stopped doing it. The first time I made a group smaller with a load I tuned myself, I was totally sold. It just feels more personal than buying boxes off the shelf.

Welcome to the rabbit hole, reloading starts as saving money then suddenly you’re debating powders at midnight..

I got into reloading 45 years ago because a family friend was into it. I've not bought much factory ammo since.

Totally new to reloading. I’ve been accumulating good used equipment for 1-2 years and just started reloading for my 7mm-08. Just finished my first two batches of 15 ea. Reloading is a good rabbit hole for my adhd brain….
Also, not having any experience, I bought 6 different factory loads to shoot first so I have something to sight in with and comparison data. I’m looking forward to learning from others!
Happy shooting!

I got into it about 12 years ago when I started shooting competitive pistol and 3 Gun. Bought components in bulk on group buys and was able to save money over factory ammo as well as tune the load to minimize felt recoil.

I've actually got a Hornady Lock & Load AP press for sale. Comes with spare parts, 9mm & .223 shell plates but no dies. $380 picked up from the Farmington Hills area.
