It's the satisfaction afterwards

Arguing with an Engineer is like Wrestling a Pig in Mud.
After awhile you realise the Pig loves it.
i wouldnt suggest the post coital cigarette at the loading bench though
Ah reloading.
The satisfaction especially when you have a number of unusual or obsolete calibers or just want the perfect combination for your rifle and style of hunting.
What I see with all those beautiful reloads is the stored potential to turn them into this.
Friday evenings effort @ 380m
300WSM 180 grain Accubond 2950 FPS muzzle velocity.
Retained weight 150 grains 380m shot entered between shoulder and spine, steep down hill shot and lodged just in front of hind off side leg under skin.
Dropped on spot and all I could see for a few minutes were its feet twitching in the air.
That's what reloading is about for me.
Akaroa1 that sums it up nicely, good to take game or whatever you choose eg targets with home loaded ammo. Personal satisfaction I think.
I like freshly loaded up rounds in nice shiny brass , they are a work of art and it almost seems a shame to fire them, until you realise bugger it, I can make more where they came from!
Reloading for others and hearing good results.
This
so i can use in it,
Pleasure!!!
I get all watered eyed looking at there`s baby's, start dreaming.
I`m absolutely sure when I look out the window I see this!!
I hate reloading its time cosumeming and boring but it saves money and its more accurate which is why I put up with having to do it
