Can't shoot without bullets!
Well I had made the investment, bought the guns and gear but I still did not have a single bullet to shoot from my guns. Turns out that after the 2008 election everyone went crazy and figured they would never again be able to buy guns or ammunition or reloading supplies so they better start hoarding. I have been reloading for rifle for hunting for many years but this entailed maybe 50 rounds a year for practice and hunting combined, with cowboy action shooting I would be shooting around 100 rounds of 45 Colt per match. The local Scheels was empty of all brass and primers, cabelas and Midway USA had 6 to 8 week back order on primers! Luckily Alex my daughter's boyfriend kept an eye out and found large pistol primers for me and I was able to finally get some brass. So with that and a can of Trail Boss powder and box of lead bullets I started reloading.
