My pet hate is the word Hoarder for people who buy in bulk to save money and are then expected to on sell at discounted prices to those who did not buy when available.Those selling powder and components at any price are supplying service whether we agree or not and buying is not compulsory. The words Rip off or Scalper seem to appear regularly.

I've managed your pipe dream by only loading for 2 calibres - .223 and .308.
Only use ADI2208 and Federal GM205M small rifle primers.
80 gr projectiles for the .233 and 155 gr & 185 gr for the .308.

I agree with you @Tedz50 regarding the description of organised people as Hoarders.
I buy in bulk for price and to guarantee that I'll be able to complete the next season's competition without running out.
(When I first starting loading I ran out of projectiles mid-season as there were none of my preference in NZ.)
I have and will share with club members who are short.

It's what I learnt in scouts "be prepared."
