    Most commonly first: .357 Mag, .38 spl, .44 Mag, 6mm

    Those are on a regular basis.
    Infrequently and randomly spur of the moment or when preparing for the range for some fun are 30-06, 30-30, and 45-70

    Will be adding:
    .270 Win/ .30-06 / .280 Rem, depending on which long action rifle I end up purchasing. H&R sort of screwed over my plans for an accessory barrel and I'm not too keen on buying another complete H&R so now I'm contemplating another bolt action. I'd really like to go .280 since I can use the same or similar projectiles. Unfortunately the current selections are slim. :xmad::xmad::xmad:

    Wow - I thought you meant 'what calibers do you reload the most,' not 'what calibers have you ever reloaded.' These lists are getting a little long.

    The most:
    .45 ACP
    308 Win
    223 Rem

    I don't reload so much in the good weather. Winter, after deer season ends until it gets nice in the Spring is my major time for reloading. I use a single stage press so 50-150 is a good evening's work depending on what else is going on. Last winter I did mostly .38 wadcutters and 9mm for target practice. This winter I have a lot of 9mm, .223 and .308 to reload but I haven't counted it yet.
    +1 I haven't even thought about touching my press since this past winter.

    The calibers I normally reload are .223, .308, .458 socom, and 12 ga. I have all the stuff I need except primers and powder to get started loading .38 spl but haven't really gotten too excited about things yet. I'm just going to hold out and see if I can't get any good deal on components.

    All done on a Dillon 550. Spent most of summer fooling with the 38'sloading up the oddball bullets. Haven't done any 357's for about a year. Now starting to find a final load for the 44Mags to play around with.
