I'm differant. I said when I retired I was gonna spend a lot more time shooting.

I refuse to let the rising cost of powder and primers stop me. After 45 years of shooting and reloading I have most of the brass I need. I cast most of my bullets. That keeps my cost down.

Regardless, I"m not about to give us shooting. If I have to pay $50 per K of primers, I'm gonna shoot.

Do I hord, maybe, depends on what you call hording, I like to start the HP season with enough components for matchs and practice. So I do stock up in the winner.

I figure is I'm gonna carry a pistol for self protection, then I should practice with it, as much possible. A min. of 200 rounds a week. Thats not counting my Bullseye Pistols.

I live 80 miles from the nearest major town that sells components. Yeap you bet when I go to town I stock up.

If thats hording, SUE ME
