Oh geez, don't remind me about the cost of shooting firearms. I just saved enough to buy a 20-gauge double-barrel pistol for $600, and that's without the ammunition, powder, or caps.

Such is the life of a gun nut. My next project is saving up enough for a Sharps rifle. $985. Firearms collection is a cruel mistress...

"Firearms collection is a cruel mistress..."

Indeed she is...

Which is why I always reloaded my .45 ammo... No misfires, no jams, and cost-effective.

Yup.
And 45 is pretty reloader friendly; short case, wide mouth, large bullet to handle.

Thing is, I just don't have enough...

Hell it's getting hard to find ammo on the shelves of sporting good stores here in the people's repulic of Illinois.

I blame the NRA for whipping up hysteria like they did under Clinton.
