Default Re: Reloading? worth it? dangerous?

After amortizing the initial cost of your equipment there is a great savings. How long it will take you to amortize depends on how much you invest in equipment. A small single stage setup can be had for under $200. A top of the line progressive setup can go over $1000.

No, it is not dangerous as long as you pay attention to the details of reloading. It's not rocket science but you do need to follow the rules. you need to stay within published loads.

Yes, you can reload with hollow point bullets.

BTW smokeless powder is not rated as an explosive. It is considered Highly Flamable. Stored in the containers the MFG provides they are designed to burst before any kind of detonation can occur. Modern smokelass powders do not burn well except under high pressure, high temperature conditions,
