Lol, I use the red bullets, too!!! Makes for great recognition at the range as well. I cast because it's cheap, but totally understand if it's not your gig. It is time consuming, and unlike other people I don find it to be the "joy" of shooting.

The only real reason I got into reloading is 2 things. First: I'm a semi prepper. So knowing how to make as much as I can on my own appeals to me. Second: I hunt anything from dove to pigs, including coyote. Raccoon. Etc. So I have loads for not destroying fur, taking heavy pigs, etc. Reloading allows me to load from mild to wild. This is why I chose 357, from 000 buck gallery loads at low velocity (rabbit load) to 38 spl (for beaters like bobcat) to 357 for bigger stuff. Reloading offers a slew of options.
