right now i don't reload because a bulk of what i shoot is .22 and 9mm, and i struggle to hit the range even twice a month. i'd say every year i prob go through 2 or 3 bricks of .22lr, maybe 800rds of 9mm, 300 .45acp and MAYBE 2-300 .38/.357mag

so not only do i have time constraints (between work, and a LOT of home improvement going on), but my most heavily used calibers are still relatively cheap to fire. (about $10 for 500+ .22lr, $15 for 100 9mm on avg)

i'd like to get into reloading some day, but right now time/cost of commercial ammo/and the fact that i don't dump rounds into the backstop make me hold off on reloading.
