Shovelhead,
I appreciate you candor, and yes, I do have those exercise machines gathering dust Reloading to save money is more of a long term economical plan; a 401k if you will. Ammo, 45 ACP in particular, may reach $1.00-2.00 per round for target and not go below for years to come. I don't save a dime if I walk on the tread mill. But I can save money by reloading (if there is *any* savings) because I enjoy target practice at the range. It's a lot of fun shooting.
If I can create a round of 45 ACP for a much lower price of purchasing then that means I can go the range more often, which at this point is rare. I used to be able to go to the range with a group of friends and shoot as much and as long as we wanted without concern for the amount of rounds sent down range. At the end of the day we used to laugh at the total number of rounds (~1000). Now, that is has all but stopped.
I'm not so concerned about the up front money on equipment - I can afford that. I'm more concerned on the cost of each round of target practice round of 45 ACP by reloading.
Perhaps at some point reloading will become an enjoyable hobby. That would be nice. I welcome it.
It is surly a hobby that compliments a shooting hobby with many advantages...
I drew the line at lead casting... Tried it and quickly found it to be to time consuming to enjoy loading and shooting.
This guy is true to his word, a very experienced reloader, longe range marksmen, and a great friend!! He taught me how to reload and a whole lot more!! In the fire arms world someone great to know!!
