On second thought, this thread DOES fit better here than in "General".
I think I'm about to round out my optics kick. I have gotten pretty well over my knives & stands/blinds kicks too. I think the packs kick will be cured once I get my Badlands 4500. I'm *almost* cured of my old-milsurp-turnbolts obsession, too.
But I feel a reloading gear kick coming on, since my income is taking a downward hit in the not-too-distant future. I already have a bunch of gear, but it has gathered dust the last 2-3 years, as I had been too busy to reload. Reloading is going to become more of a necessity now - but a fun necessity at that. Time to start sorting & polishing all this brass here.
[I'm guessing throw out the powder that's been in the powder dropper for 2+ years? I'd imagine the chem composition might have changed being in there that long interacting with the plastic sides of the powder drop & air & dust?]
dbgun, oh yeah, I'm a sucker for anything that is camo and/or keeps me warm. If it's both and on sale, then fuggidaboutit.
But, rifles & riflescopes kick is neverending it seems... sigh.
Taylorce, I too am a sucker for pretty/fancy wood & blued steel.
