How much have you spent on reloading since the election?

I started with no equipment or supplies at all and have spent over $1,500 since the election.

$1400 including equipment and supplies.

Same boat...$1200

We are not reloaders, but afraid to add up the stimulated firearms economy since election.

about $500 - but spent probably 2k before.

Just supplies about 1k, I know stop hording all the primers.. . .

$3000 including equipment and supplies.

More than I wanted to, but not quite enough.

Zero Have plenty

Gee...That question had to come up today...I spent $70 just today. About $300.

When "W" had two years to go I started looking for and finding discounted supplies. I am in very good shape. Although I did buy 500 LP primers last weekend.

Same here. I did try to help stimulate the economy by buying a new Remington 870.

probably around $600. I would have spent more, but poor college student ran out of money.

Zero
There is nothing left in the stores.Its all gone.

not a single penny, why would I? I already have plenty of primers brass bullets and powder. Well then again I just told my friend who is going to Germany for 3+ years I would give him $200 FOR HIS DILLION 550 IN 38 SUPER. So I guess its $200 but it has nothing to do with that socialist election that occured.

Me, I'm in the zero crowd.

I suspect those of us who have been reloading for a while aren't having as much of an urge to do the big stock up buying as new-ish guys. Me and my range buddies who reload have been group buying powder and primers and scavenging for bulk deals on bullets and brass for the past 3+ years, what with the run up in component costs. We have our back stock built up from a running start, so to speak.

Componetnts about $3K
Eqiuipment(Dies) about $300
Handgun Ammo about $1K
Handguns $3K
AR-15 $2.5K
Shotguns $3K

About $500. I'll probably get another 15K bullets over the next few months. I cannot have them all come home at once.

By march I will have spent over $500 since last fall.
I figured I would pick up a keg of my new favorite powder for pistol use, get bullet molds for every thing but 22cal, get some (couple thousand) primers and I might pick up a bullet sizer/lubber but they are over $200 with dies and not sure if I want to go that far.

1k or so for me...

Oh, probably $600, but that is not a reflection of Obama's presidency as much as the fact that my formerly hoplophobic, anti-gun wife has now become addicted to shooting last December and is currently going through .38 and .357 mag like potato chips.
