My brass accumulation efforts will increase. 3.50 a round and I suspect not reloadable.

What's "factory" big game ammo? I'm unfamiliar with the term.Factory big game ammo is already approaching 3.50 per rounds. I dont see any reason to reload if they can make these new rounds as precise and consistent as handloads.
I dont know what else to call it. Go to store, buy hunting ammo produced at a factory....What's "factory" big game ammo? I'm unfamiliar with the term.

only if your already set up and experienced at handloading.Give me 4 hours and I'll load more than most people shoot in a year.
The best time to start reloading is 20 years ago.only if your already set up and experienced at handloading.
all Im saying is all other things being equal (points finger at supply chain issues...) if this new composite ammo is as precise as handloads that pretty much removes half the motivation to handload hunting rifle rounds like the 308.
yeah agree, Im just referring to hunting ammo since thats what the OPs link went to. I dont see composite ammo replacing other reloading needs but its still new technology and I dont know much about composite ammo right now. I dont see myself buying any for my hunting rifle unless they used my exact projectile I want.The best time to start reloading is 20 years ago.
The second-best time to start is today.
Sure, factory stuff is light years better than it was 20 years ago, but that's not half the motivation to handload.
However good the stuff is you can buy (or actually not, these days) I'll bet the beer money that I can do better. And more. And cheaper.
true, but with traditional brass ammo.Mass produced factory ammo has more variances in quality than good reloads.

for target shooting sure. I dont really think of hunting ammo as target rounds though.Cost would come to mind

when I think of target practice I think of cheaper ammo and shooting a lot of ammo in a range session thats affordable to shoot in quantity. I dont think of using accubonds or other premium hunting projectiles for general target practice. I fully understand that hunters want their hunting ammo to be as accurate as they can but I cant imagine anyone goes target shooting with hunting ammo like they do with pistol or AR15s etc. ?Help me understand your statement. My hunting ammo is about as target as it gets, assuming that by target ammo you mean the most accurate rounds I can make.
While you're certainly entitled to your opinion, I've read this from more that one source. Since I've never been in combat I have no real experience.Gotta love the hype! Really! Milk is milk, yeah, you can spin it different ways but "picking up cases to use against" just doesn't fly except with unicorns.
