[QUOTE="comfisherman, post: 515027, member: 8394"] I handload because their is no way to get the componetry I want with the quality that is needed for anthing less than a small fortune. The fellow who got me started in all things centerfire used to joke that he had burned more 22-250 ai barrels, than he had fired factory centerfire rounds. Wasnt until 5 rifles in to my long range obsession that I fired a factory round through a rifle. That was mainly due to the ammo coming with the rifle and a tremendous lack of factory brass. The only lesson I walked away with was that 150 scirrocos loaded bye remington dont group for crap. For me reloading is an essential part of the shooting hobby. Where I have been living the nearest decent range was many miles away, but my reloading desk was just a room away. It kept me connected to the shooting sports even when the nearest 1k range was 150 miles away. As for it being cheaper, well only if you shoot a lot. Those rcbs rock chuckers, several tumblers, an ohaus 10-10, 15 sets of dies, tumbling media, stock piles of bullets and brass and primers..... Dunno how much was saved. [/QUOTE]
