Hi all
I'm in southern California (3rd generation) and been shooting about 40 years. The last 8 or so I have been loading my own in 357, 44 & 45acp. I managed to survive the 'know it all, hey this is easy" stage and now take loading and reloading much more seriously. It's a great hobby and there's a lifetime of things to learn. I think, at times, I enjoy it more than shooting. I have a Dillon 650 with toolheads for every caliber I load and powder drops for every powder I use. I take a chronograph to the range and have a great time, mostly just BS-ing with the folks I meet. Truth be known, I'm just not that great a shot.
I'm starting to get interested in long range target shooting and may have to get a 338 or something in the near future.
