I don't do all the reloading steps at one shot. As I shoot my different rifles, I dump all the empties in a box. When I get some time I will tumble/clean them.

When I get time next I will inspect, trim if needed and punch the primers out.

Then when I get time I will lube and resize.

Then when I get time I willinspect and prime.

Then when I need some ammo I will sort our Rem/Win groups, measure powder for each and inspect the powder level in each cartridge.

Then I will seat the bullets.

I do not load a bunch at a time. 22-250s I will load a 100 or so at a time. 300/7mag I will load 20 to 40 at at time.

The important thing is to INSPECT, MEASURE, CHECK, NO HURRY.

I also log each batch. Number, Calibur, primer, powder, bullet, OAL, date. I store them in a ammo box and put the same info on the bax as I log.

I have some ammo (small amount) that I don't know what they are. Thought I would always remember but I don't.

How much time does it take? It takes as long as it takes.
