I'm from Cincy, OH area, haven't reloaded in about 10-12 years. Can't really remember, I'm gettin' up there in years. Been retired a year now and loving every minute. I needed more things to keep me occupied, so decided to take up reloading again.
I did a search on Google about reloading and found this site. Did a little looking around, liked what I saw, and decided to join.
I've never hunted big game, only small stuff years ago. I just target shoot now. I really enjoyed groundhog hunting, and I've busted my share of crows. I haven't really kept fit, so hunting is probably not a good idea for me now, but I love shooting and just about everything else that goes with it.
Anyway, Hi from Cincy, and glad to be aboard.

I thought finding ammo was hard, it doesn't compare to finding some of the components needed to roll your own. Thanks for the welcome.

Ain't that the truth. The recent election has done more for the firearms industry than anything in history.

GGG, Welcome to HB. Hope you enjoy the site. As for not reloading for 10-12 years....it's kind of like riding a bike. Good luck with your renewed hobby. RD

Thanks for the welcome. I've found primers and bullets, but powders for .223 and .308 are scarce.
