[moosehunt]

Started about '60 with my dad. That makes about 48 yrs of rifle (many calibers/cartridges), pistol, and shotgun. Shot compitition trap for several years loading about 15,000 per year. Truth is, until about 4 years ago, I had never purchased a single loaded round of anything but .22 rimfire. I hunt a fair amount, domestically and abroad, and trust my handloads way more than anything commercially produced.
Makes a total of 1945.

[ReloaderFred]

I started in 1963 and never stopped, so 45 years. I currently load for 27 calibers, and climbing.

That makes 2084 hours total, so far.

Hope this helps.

[GearHead_1]

This is truly a lot of years of reloading experience. Now I wonder how many rounds per year the average reloader kicks out?

 

[ZeSpectre]

I'm at negative three months (I'm getting my first reloading kit for my birthday in May) so don't count me on the totals BUT I'm marking this thread permanently so I know who to ask for advice when I get stuck!

 

[Rembrandt]

In "dog years" I've been at it for 210 years.....OK, 30 years....that makes 2140 total.

 

[RustyFN]

Add my big 1.5 years and you have 2141.5.

Oops, that's a different subject, you asked, so you start another thread with the question, "HOW MANY ROUNDS DO YOU LOAD?" I just started one, "How much do you spend?"

Damn cabin fever is in full swing! Another snow storm, then it's gonna get real cold AGAIN!:banghead:

[Ad Astra]

I can add two years: 1978-1980 with a Lee Loader.

Back in the "hobby" this week with new Lyman T-Mag II- just because 6.5x50 Arisaka ammo is $1/shot. $92 bucks for 4 boxes delivered.

At $500 for the press and all the rest, it's become a matter of principle. Hope I live long enough to break even.


total: 2196.6
