morning, why r u questioning our comments the members like me question? If do not want to reload, sell ur weapons, and buy urself a crossbow,spear, or slingshot should solve ur delimmea. (sp) I actively read LRH forum everyday. There is a vast amount of knowledge on this site. Read and enjoy the knowledge members share the sport of Hunting and the activities associated with shooting.

NOO..I wont sell my weapons. I dont question SOME comments...just the ones of some individuals that deemed it necessary to state unproved so called facts about me personally.
As a side note I dont have any dilemma and I posted my original QUESTION here in the relading forum because it had to do with reloading ( or not) and BTW I DO reload for the calibers I shoot often.
I sure hope this ends all the bantering!
For the OP's use, it seems advantageous to just buy off the shelf. The shooting distance is low and rounds fired/year is low. It would be easier to just buy ammo off the shelf if it shoots well enough.
If I didn't have a reloading bench, I would just buy one box a year and just make sure the zero holds at the distance I plan to shoot. Pretty sad for someone who really likes guns. If you shoot a fair bit, you can see cost savings in ammo but I think people who reload are DIY types and it's more a hobby than anything else...or at least those I talk too.

As the old women use to say...MY stars and garters". Someone that finally appears to see my intentions in my post!
Once I find a good shooting brand / load...I'll purchase 4-6 boxes of it to make sure I have some salted away. Other than the initial shooting to get it zero'd in and find that "right load"...I cant see me shooting even 50 rounds a year with it.
Now...with my 222 and 22-250; 243 and 260....totally different story. With the 22-250 and the 243 I have almost 1200 rounds boxed up here ( all reloads) ready for prairie dogs.
I reload because I enjoy it and in my opinion it is the only way to bring out the full potential in a rifle. Now I only reload for my precision rifles. That keeps me plenty busy.
I have bunches of 5.56 lake city stockpiled for my SHTF guns.
I don't reload for my pistols but I have plenty of .45 ammo stored away.

Yes, well added statement.

In ideal conditions: I duplicate or slightly exceed factory performance that is tailored *to* that rifle, at a reduced cost.
