For years , actually 60 years, I've enjoyed reloading rifle cartridges.
So with everything closed (can't even buy a quart of Scotch), I've been reloading. First the stuff I use a lot, 222 and 260remington. then I went to other cartridges. But now I'm reloading 9.3x62 (286 gr bullet), 338 (225 gr) and 416 mags (350 and 400 gain bullets). these are all hunting rounds, more than I can use in my remaining 'career'. So the heirs of my body may shoot them. How many 400 gr FMJ 416 mag will I need? loaded 40, should satisfy my son, and his 4 kids, maybe even my GGs and GGd!

You know, I would think that as well....but then the son and neighbor got into the pumpkin patch and now I'm well stocked on brass for reloading again. Funny how a .375 can make a bunch of guys giggle when food explodes into a mist.

Be sure and label your loaded rounds.
Somewhere down the line their might be a reloader in your family. I think it would be cool to hunt with "Grandpas" loads. Then reload his brass. Wing master

I have always considered myself to be quite the bullshitter, But ocasionally it is nice to sit back and listen to a true professional......So, Carry on.

Yep GD wanted to learn to shoot. She and I had a blast shooting my son's old pellet gun.
