I must agree, after reloading for awhile it becomes as much as an obsession as shooting and hunting. Just trying to get that perfect load for each gun that you have. You definitely save money but shoot more which is just ok with me. Being able to shoot more has been great for my kids for not only are they able to practise with their .22's but then work into their hunting rifles. All the practise will only make them better in the woods. A win win situation.
