    Default How long have you been reloading (poll)

    A recent thread about powder shortages got me wondering.
    Are there a lot of new loaders helping to drive up demand for powder?
    So how many of us are new loaders, less than a year?
    How many started 1-2 years? 2-5 etc.


    I am in the 1-2 year category, I got my press shortly after the Connecticut school shooting. In the last 20 months I've bought maybe 8 lbs of powder though I have not used it all up yet.

    This poll is kinda the same as asking how many old farts versus young bucks are out there. I really can't remember, but it's gotta be over 40 years...
    You don't have enough guns untill you don't know how many you have.

    Still a wannabe. Bought reloading equipment and ammo casings, bullets, primers
    and two cans powder about a year and a half ago.
    Haven't got the nerve to try it yet.

    I've been reloading magazines for almost 40 years - can I get in the club yet, or do I need to own a revolver too?

    I called to check my ZIP CODE!....DY-NO-MITE!!!

    I started reloading about 6 years ago so I am still kind of new to it. I started so I could shoot more.
