My hobby is fun and rewarding. Take tonight for instance. You could not have done what I did tonight without reloading, impossible!

I went deer hunting with my wife of almost 35 years and she was carrying the rifle in our Indiana Deer legal wildcat cartridge. They do not sell ammo for that commercially and one of the guys that puts the guns together locally charges $4 per round.

I have the cost down to just a bit over a buck a round because I have used brass now, powder is minimal and I am using Wolf primers. The 200gr Accubonds are the killers at $1/each!

Of course, I HAD to take my Marlin 1894 loaded with those cast bullets in the third picture....Haven't harvested anything with them yet but....when I do.....the satisfaction of that one prize will be worth all of the effort and cost to this point......
