    I reload simply to try and get the best value for money and learn more about what I'm doing and why I'm doing it.

    I've worked out depending on projectile my .223 costs about 50c per round and the .308 is about 80c so that beats the hell out of $50ish for 20 quality but still soft loads.

    In the end as we all know it ends up costing more as we shoot more..... yet to find a problem with that!

    I don't see a problem there. I reload so I can shoot more.
    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!

    No, thats a good thing .. better accuracy .. because you're shooting more .. and better accuracy , because reloads are more accurate

    Win all round

    I also shoot more so I can reload more! Certainly value my quiet time at the table with no nagging.
