reloading
Handloading or reloading is the process of loading firearmcartridges or shotgun shells by assembling the individual components (case/hull, primer, powder, and bullet/shot), rather than purchasing completely assembled, factory-loaded ammunition. Boxer-primed cases are more commonly reloaded.
Historically, handloading referred to the private manufacture of cartridges and shells using all newly manufactured components, whereas reloading referred to the private manufacture of cartridges and shells using previously fired cartridge cases and shotgun hulls using new bullets, shot, primers, and powder. In modern usage, some make no distinction between these terms, while others find important distinctions.One distinction is the purpose for the practice; handloaders often seek smaller batches of high-quality ammunition, whereas reloaders are said to make large quantities of ammunition that does not need to be of as high quality. At least one authority (McPherson) holds that a better distinction for these connotations is that, regardless of quantity, handloads tend to be of generally high quality while reloads tend to be merely functional.

I recently picked up a new 8# keg of TAC powder. Turns out, I don't need it. $300 cash, pickup near Hillsboro. Bottle is still sealed, and I have never opened the lid.
Used once. Comes with box and pour spout ladle. A little cobwebby from garage storage but in great condition. Local pickup only. I’ve got a bit of bullet lead scrap you can have with it in a paint rolling tin if you want.
I have 200 Sierra 45g, .224 spitzers and 100 Nosler 45g Hornet solid base projectiles to trade. Looking for 110g 30 cal M1 Carbine projectiles or $45 cash. Ships for $9 extra
