Bad time to get into reloading?

[espresso junky]

Thanks for everyone's input and advice. I have been mostly looking online but there are a few local shops I can check out. Went to a local Cabella and there wasn't one container of any powder I could find and only a few rifle primers. Guess I'll just slowly acquire whatever I can get my hands on over the next few weeks...months...hopefully not years. Problem is when I get an interest in something, I get obsessed about it and want to get started right away. Drives the wife crazy.

If you are the obsessive-compulsive type then yes right now is not the best time. Take a deep breath and relax...get the equiptment when you can as it becomes available and soon you will be reloading. The next time this happens , you will be all set.

Start with some shotshell reloading if nothing else. Appears to be plenty of 209 primers, wads and lead shot sitting on the shelves in my area. There's only a lack of pistol primers, rifle primers, bullets and powder other than Clays.
