Greetings from frigid southern Illinois. I have been reloading since my dispatch days in the Mid 80's. I started with the Lee hand loader and have moved on the the lee 3 hole turret and then to the classic cast 4 hole turret. For Christmasd I decided to get a progressive(Loadmaster) as I retired from Law Enforcement last summer and had accumulated much brass. Due to the BHO years I kept buying component but had little time to reload. I also enjoy camping, fishing, and Hunting. I am sonewhat of a hoarder when it comes to components so I hope I fit in here. Thanks for tuning in... +guns

Welcome. I have to admit I am a brass junkie myself and I have a feeling there are others on this forum who have more than me.

Howdy and welcome.

I'm new and haven't started hoarding brass, yet, but the day is coming. I did catch myself buying a set of dies this weekend for a caliber I don't even own. It was way too easy of a decision.

Welcome to the forum .

I don't know about hoarding ........ I have enough 264 WM 1x to wear our the barrel and sell it off for 3x ......
357 mag is a little short in the stash but there's enough 38 to make up for it .
I set a goal of 1000 per cartridge loaded , I haven't done so well there .
Pretty hard to have too much in stock put in .

Welcome to the board. Still young at this, but I love it. Started loading because of the last scare when Obama took office. Now I've learned to store up a little extra.
