Question for you veteran reloaders...
I have been stocking up on supplies in the last 6 months. Ive got a decent amount but I am wondering just how much some of you long time guys have if you care to tell..lol. Pounds of powder, bullets, primers, different kinds etc. Id imagine some of you guys have cabinets full of bullets and powder..lol.

RE: Question for you veteran reloaders...
So you're the reason I can't find any d**n primers or brass! (kidding)
I've got enough to last me a short while, but I've been reduced to necking down 270 Wby brass because there is NO 257 Wby brass to be found anywhere.[:@] I bought 20 pcs of 270 Wby to get me going, but I just hope this little guns 'n' ammo panic attack that this country is having will end soon so I can get some proper brass!
I really hope the panic buyers aren't right. This happened under Clinton and we pulled through. To be honest, I think that even Nazi Pelosi learned her lesson in 1994 and I don't see any really nasty gun control coming at least in Obama's first (and hopefully last) term. This reminds me of every time they forecast 6" of snow coming. Can't find a loaf of bread because people panic buy the shelves clean, only to find out that, as usual, 6" of snow really isn't enough to snow them in for days.
Everybody needs to take a deep breath.

4350 is quite a popular powder for reloaders, isn't it? Seems a lot of people use it for various cartridges. I know it's one of my favorites....

RE: Question for you veteran reloaders...
I bought a couple of lbs of extra powder and bunch of 30 cal bullets. I have enough to last me a lifetime of hunting or 2 years of bench shooting and I don't feel like have nearly enough.
