In another thread recently some friendly dispute arose regarding how common handloading was among shooting enthusiasts. I was maintaining that it is actually very rare. But so many folks in the particular environment of THR do reload that my opinion wasn't very convincing.
Then today at Athena, one of the most popular indoor ranges in Houston, I asked the staff how common it was for folks to pick up their brass and reload it. I was told, as I expected, not very common at all. The guys I was talking to thought that 5-10% would be a very high guess.
So I thought maybe a poll would be in order. What do you do?
In case moderators think this is in the wrong place for this thread, by all means move it. But I didn't put it in the Handloading forum on purpose. I didn't want only folks who do handload to be exposed to it, thereby skewing the results of the poll. Hence my choice of a very general forum.
Please note you may select as many of the choices as you wish.
I should probably say that I would not be surprised to find a larger fraction of THR members handloading than of the shooting population in general. After all, one of the attractions of THR is the interaction with other like-minded folks, and handloading is one of the forums that attracts a lot of interest here.
