Ditto this.Since I started reloading, I really can't see wasting any money on factory ammo. With the Dillon stuff, I can put out rediculous amounts of ammo very quickly and consistently.
While I don't crank out any 'ridiculous' amounts of ammo (due to variety) I do very well with a my CoAx and RC presses.
I often read about some saying they 'didn't see the value in reloading' (mostly 9mm) but I have never really understood this especially when some of those mentioned having progressives and the ability to reload lots of ammo quickly - but maybe they are competitors who find it more convenient to buy the amounts they need. Not being a 'competitor' however I reload everything I shoot.
In the last 20 years I have only bought a couple boxes of ammo - and that was only due to 'getting back' into two guns I had forsaken years earlier - 1911s and .30-30 WInchesters and needed ammo to shoot them immediately ! and to have some 'starting' brass for reloading.
