War has always been ugly. Nowadays, with social media so available to the masses, those who have never experienced combat, it is all of a sudden "real". It is no different than some punks videotaped beating a helpless person to death on our city streets. On the one hand, people watch it with...
Unfortunately, and I don't like throwing our money away to other nations, but if we don't buy our way to regional influence, China will. They are already becoming a big contributor to South American countries.
All I know is that the news media must have really played it up. Within minutes after I got home my father asked me if I was hooked on drugs and kept pressing me even after my initial response of "no". I thought that we would have moved passed this sort of thing by now. All I'll add is "Welcome...
Unless you are racking up labor costs when watching tv, glued to your smartphone, etc., I don't see how otherwise free time should be counted in the cartridge reloading process. One can always find excuses for not doing something and it really doesn't upset me when people don't want to reload...

I've bought a few used guns and reloading equipment, over the years, that had obvious problems that often previous owners created and just passed along. None of the problems were of a catastrophic nature and I was able to resolve them without too much trouble and expense. I never had that with...
Reloading will save you money no matter what cartridge you are loading for. I've been reloading since the early '70's. I've always saved money, especially when loading match quality ammo. I still shoot a lot of .45 ACP and really save there! Reloading gives you a lot of options on ammo...
Guns, reloading and competitive shooting have been my only hobbies for many decades. I've never owned a boat, golf clubs, tennis racket, bowling ball, etc. We've always lived within our means and often below. Being debt free and empty nesters, gives us a chance to splurge, once in a while...
