Thanks for this mot excellent Idea. I was able to balance things out so I have enough casings, powder, and bullets to match my primer stock, as that will be the limiting factor.

I did this when the last shortage eased. I discovered I had way more powder than I had primers for. I adjusted the primer inventory up during the lull between the shortages. I don't have enough for the rest of my life, I hope.

I used to cast bullets years ago but gave it up due to the time commitment. I have more time now. While rebuilding my inventory I also took the time to buy a casting setup and enough molds for everything I shoot. I don't have a lot of metal but I can always buy that if need be. It's all sitting in trunk in our storage unit still in original boxes. I'll bust it out if I have too.
