Well, I was intentionally going after only .38 spl/.357 magnum to keep it simple. I've acquired a couple of M1 Garands so .30-'06 may be next.

What do YOU reload ?

.223 tikka lite, .243 Rem 700 CDL, .264 Win.Mag model 70 Westerner, .32-20 Savage model 23-C sporter , 7.62x54R Moison 31, 6.5x55 model 96 Swede, 30-06 model 98 Chilean contract Mauser, .357 S&W model 66 4", .41 Mag
S&W model 657 7 1/2"

I find it very helpful to list the weapon as opposed to just the cartrige as it helps narrow your reload search, all guns are not created equal and have a more discerning palate as to what they have an appetite for, if you would agree try to post this info when looking for or giving help to others , we will give much thanks and admiration

There are probably a few others...

9mm
.38 Special
.357 Magnum
.45 ACP
.45 LC
.243 Winchester
.45-70 Government

One of these days I'll talk the olde man out of some of the other rifles and add a few extra calibers. I'll also talk the boss into releasing funds for an AR and add .223 to the list. One of these days.
