Looks like Irma might swing my way so the wife and I are reviewing our plans. The firearms are going with us. we have important documents and computers/hard drives ready to pack up.
I have insurance that will cover everything in my house (minus guns. . .different policy) but are there items in your reloading/shooting kit that you would not want to have to find a replacement for? I already know I can't take all my kids toys, furniture, clothes and books. It is unrealistic to expect to save everything, besides guns and priceless things like my wife's wedding dress, hard drives with tons of family photos, is anything worth messing with trying to save?
with the reloading market as it currently sits, is there anything that is extremely hard to get? (13,000 primers, 12lbs of various powder) dies, presses, scales, trimmers, etc.
when/if I evacuate I will assume a total loss, that is extremely unlikely, but I will not be trapped like those poor folks in Texas, i have advanced warning and the means to escape.
how would you prep you reloading stuff? would you even bother to coat presses in oil? pack them up in plastic tubs?
right now it is too early to determine if I even have to worry, but if this bad boy crosses FL with some strength I am going to leave and hope for the best. I think most people should review their household and figure out what is most important vs what is nice to have anyway,
