You know Your Addicted to Reloading When....

Re: You know Your Addicted to Reloading When....

HAHA, guilty as charged. Dumped 50 rnds out hunting prairie dogs cause it was tying up my brass for playing around with. <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: guntard007</div><div class="ubbcode-body">When your only purpose for shooting at the range that day is to "empty" some brass so you can go home and reload try a new load. </div></div>
 
Re: You know Your Addicted to Reloading When....

When your wife gets up through the night to feed the baby,
And you get up to change the brass in the tumbler..
 
Re: You know Your Addicted to Reloading When....

When you have a huge pile of fired dirty brass, and you take a photo with your phone because it looks 'cool'.

And when you have a boxfull of shiny fresh made rounds, and you take a photo with your phone because they look 'cool'.

I've actually been participating in some clinical trial work by a medical device company. Been doing it for a few months now.

Every 2 weeks, I go in and they draw about 60cc of blood. Takes 15 mins. They pay me $35 cash.

I call it my 'Blood for Bullets' plan :)

Re: You know Your Addicted to Reloading When....

PS. Sierra is a GREAT girls name!And: when 30000 rnds. Doesn't seem to be "too much", and you still stay, to pick up more brass.
 
Re: You know Your Addicted to Reloading When....

When you have all these little baggies of sorted oddball brass you've picked up, and have no rifles for. ...In case you might wind up with one of those rifles someday. Or, just in case you end up with a 100 piece bag of something that some stranger needs someday, and you will be able to trade him for something neato.


Have you been peaking in my reloading room? ahahahahahaha
 
Re: You know Your Addicted to Reloading When....

When you order so many bullets at one time to save shipping costs from MidwayUSA, that the poor postal lady cant lift the box out of her truck. True story.
 
Re: You know Your Addicted to Reloading When....

When you actually finally say " ok, I have a Problem. Seek intervention in fishing and then say screw it bc 1) no one likes a quitter and 2) it doesn't go boom. Finally your buddies pay you to reload for them
 
Re: You know Your Addicted to Reloading When....

When your monthly component bill is higher than your power bill.
When your load room has more green equipment than a John Deere dealership.
When your load room is wallpapered with manufacturers bullet posters and sticky notes with load recipes you want to try.
 
Re: You know Your Addicted to Reloading When....

When the rangemaster gives you a key to the range because you are there so much trying new loads.

Re: You know Your Addicted to Reloading When....

This! This has caused more problems with my accuracy than anything else with auto-loaders! Big reason I switched to a bolt gun!
 
Re: You know Your Addicted to Reloading When....

The dog has a bed in the reloading room because that is where most of their time hanging out with you happens.

Constantly worried if a TSA swab at the airport on my laptop is going to get me "special attention".
 
Re: You know Your Addicted to Reloading When....

You buy a dehumidifyer, not because you can't close any of the doors in the house since the door jams are so swollen, but because you want to keep your components and tumbling media dry.

That one is sadly very true........funny my non-reloading friends think I am just a cheap bastard when I do this.
 
Re: You know Your Addicted to Reloading When....

When your scared to take your new girlfriend in the basement because your afraid she might get freaked out when she sees you have a special room for all your ammo and reloading supplies.
