Shooting and Reloading are a BIG part of my 'unwind time'.
My Range has closed due to the 'Current Events' (So sick of the C-word I don't even want to type it!!!!)
I have plenty of components to assemble, but when you can't 'unload' any of the stack of stuff you've already reloaded, the desire to produce a bigger stack just isn't as strong.
But I still crave my unwind time,,, More now than ever, perhaps.
So,,,
Am I the only one doing things a bit differently in the reload room, just to occupy the time/free my mind?
Examples:
I'm de-capping brass that I normally wouldn't de-cap before wet-tumbling. I'm telling myself 'It won't hurt anything and the p-pockets will be cleaner'. Spent several hours that way.
Ran a couple-thousand 45 ACP brass through my "Bulge-Buster". Not because they really needed it. Just b/c I haven't done it for a loooong time and thought it would be something different.
So, are others doing similar things, or am I just going nucking futs?
(I swear, as soon as I start to think about pulling loads apart just to put them back together again, I'll know for sure that I've passed the point of no return!!!)
