Hey Folks,

You can also eliminate all your vowells, spaces, and other punctuation, as being unnecessary to communication, and I would agree that such a message could be deciphered. However, such communication is a bit more difficult to read, and not being either a Grammar teacher or a CIA decipher specialist, I and others may find reading such communications to be more trouble than they are worth.

Good grammar is simply a means to facilitate the effective communication of ideas.

Best wishes,
Dave Wile

Probably because of a great need for attention to detail.

Alot depends on the cost. Figure how many times you will be able to reuse the brass like the other folks are saying, and that will bring it down some. Are you buying top of the line componets or cheaper stuff? That will no doubt affect your cost, and making bullets. It seems like alot because you buy in more volume than just a box so the start up cost some up front. I dont reload to save money. I do it for the hobby, and try to get the best I can out of the rifle, and cartiridge I am loading for, and I try to buy the best of everything. I am not saving very much money, but a little, and having alot of fun knowing I am making a custom round that will be better than anything you can buy. There are very few people I reload for. The one's that I do I take there rifle and work the load up just for that rifle only. I even make sure its cleaned the right way, optics are installed correct etc. If feels good when someone tells you they got there buck or bear with the load you made for them, and how much more accurate there rifle shoots or pistol performs etc. Keep it safe, and have fun.
