How many?

I have dies for many cartridges I have never loaded, and dies I have used seldom for custom loading in olden times when lawyers were in the minority in California.
I load for myself only now, but do load for my Martini Cadets in .310 and the .577-450 Martini Henry and .577 Snider, my Werndl, Dovitiis, '71 and '71-'84 Mausers, Arisakas, Nambus, 8mm Nagant revolver, .40-65 WCF, .45-120 Sharps, .50 Maynard, as well as a number of more usual cartridges.
I seem to accumulate loading tools.
Cheers from Darkest California,
Ross

You made me count. As is the case with most people here, the total was higher than expected...

Note that less than 10 of these calibers account for the bulk of my reloading. Maybe it's time to do some more thinning...
