Nope, got thousands of empty rounds laying around - and many more thousand ready to roll!
I wish I had a nice progressive loader so that I could solve my problem and become a compulsive reloader. |

My problem, I just don't have enough money to keep it all loaded. I have about 10k loaded at this time. I also have about 15k of empty brass. My oldest son gave me 10k of empty 38 spec brass for Christmas last year. I haven't touched any of it yet, not enough money.

In .223, I've got around 1.5k loaded, and around 1k of empties. Financial circumstances at the moment prevent me from increasing the former and decreasing the latter by much. It doesn't help that I'm working up match loads, so I load around 10 of a particular recipe then test. That requires that I borrow a chrono and go to the range...
By this time next year, I hope to have gotten a recipe or three that my rifle likes; then I'll buy another rifle and it will all start over again! |

This one hits a little close to home.
Besides making the turkey my project for the day is to load 500 .357magnums. The brass and bullets just showed up yesterday and its driving me nuts having it empty. Then there's the 444 brass to load and 200 223s that need trimming. It just never stops. |

I've got about 1500 .223, 4-500 .45 brass staring at me. I have to force myself to reload. Guess I need a progressive.

I have a problem that is related to this: I can't stand [i]not[/i] to save empty brass. I take brass from friends in calibers I don't even own. And yet, I don't have anything to reload them with! So I have hundreds-thousands of empties and NO reloader.

I have a rock crusher press but no where to set it up and no dies in those calibers. But I drag all my empties home from the range.[%|] |

I've got a few hundred rounds of .45acp waiting to be loaded, but a hand press sucks for that! I have my friend's progressive (that'll crank out about 300 rounds in an hour), but I'm waiting for him to build a bench for us, so we can set it up and get it crankin!

My office is FULL of empty brass...about 2,500 rounds of .45acp, 1,000 9mm, and 500 .38/.357. I just can't find time to reload.
And to think I am wanting to cook up about 5k of .223. I haven't even bought the damn dies!!! It's kind of like my dad and fishing...he thinks about it more than he actually does it. I think about shooting, reloading, etc. daily but only shoot about once every 2 to 3 months. :( |

What's wrong with you?
Well, let's see.....you're fat, losing your hair, your eyesight is failing......but at least you aren't ME!!! Just kidding my friend. You have seen my reloading room, if I were to load all of my empties, I would have around 15,000 rounds! Balming |
