I used to reload for pistol back in the good old days before the Government made the streets safe but haven't done much for rifle since. My stock of RG 155 is dwindling and I'm not sure I can bring myself to pay almost a pound a round for RUAG etc.
Just had a quick look through the Midway site and there is a bewildering selection of cases and bullets. I'm not planning to do a lot of experimentation just work out a load that I can knock out to feed a casual club TR habit. Has anyone got a good recipe and any recommendations for bullets, cases, powders etc. I've still got all the hardware.
So you think you can handle a casual habit do you?
Many a good fellow has gone before you muttering "I can handle it" and "It's not often, just once or twice a month"
But before you know it you are thinking about the next time, it takes up your every waking thought and sometimes you dream about it too.
Your family comment that you are not the person you used to be, they hardly ever see you, and worse of all it starts to consume every penny you have - before you know it you are looking at the kiddies piggy banks to fund that next essential bit.
Your health will suffer too, always chasing the dragons tail of the perfect load. No good turning to your Doctor for help, they have no expertise in this field and god only knows that few family members will ever be able to lend any constructive advise.
Sadly the only help that you will be able to get are from forums like this, and far from being a dry house, we will only be encouraging that you try more ways of doing it and with different magical combinations.
Such true words, you find yourself drawn to obscure websites to fuel your need, you pounce on the postman as he walks to your door clutching small jiffy bags and you spend hours tracking deliveries from far flung corners of the earth. It is even worse when your wife reloads as well because your need has to be justified to someone who knows exactly what you are talking about and probably has a more rational approach to the addiction.
Until it comes to anything associated with powder throwing that is :lol: :lol: :lol:
