| I've only been reloading since 1981 and I don't want to be the longest time reloader on these boards. That would make me even older than I am and that's too old by half already.

| Wow! There are alot of old farts around here. I guess ill take the lead as the newest reloader. I started in 2011 with my .375 H&H and my .223 coyote gun.
I have walked in the foot prints of the elephant, listened to lion roar and met the buffalo on his turf. I shall never be the same.

| 1980 or '81 I think. In those days, reloading was frowned upon in RSA as something people did when they couldn't afford factory ammo. I guess that pretty much summed me up!
30-odd years later, I understand that reloading is for folk who aren't satisfied with what they can buy over the counter |
