maybe, reloading is a cool hobby to share with kids, wife, but I’m also incredibly lazy and have gotten to the point I’m not interested in standing by myself especially when there ain’t much cost savings. I have Reloading ADHD or something.
My shtick the past few years is a Shyda’s trip, load up on the cheapest 1 ounce stuff. Top off ammo when needed
You've apparently wondered into the wrong forum..
I find the opposite to be true. Components run out less seldom than my ammo does, and I tend to keep a decent stock of components. That way I'm not beholden to what's available at any particular point. If ammo gets scarce or the prices are driven up, but I've still got components, it really doesn't affect me because I paid up front.lol Just keeping it real. The convenience of buying ammo is just easier than buying components and then still have to load them.
