Since I reload it is not that big of a deal. I have components ready to make about 5000 rounds and I try to keep at least 2000 ready to go. It is surprising how quickly you can burn 2000 rounds if you and a buddy or two go sporting clays shooting.

I try to supply the ammo and they pay the range fees. In general it works out well for both of us.
