ohihunter,
I have to agree with GBExpat about thinking "reloading may not be a comfortable "fit" for you ...," because I have felt the same way myself when reading your posts. I don't know you, but you seem interested in our opinions, you don't seem thin-skinned, and I believe you know the difference between constructive criticism and insults.
That said, I have read a good number of your posts (with interest), and many seem to be about reloading to save money on ammunition. You torment yourself over deciding which components to buy in large quantity for savings, without the journey unique to your situation. You describe the process of reloading with reservations instead of interested anticipation. You talk of loading like it's a chore to get through and then be done with.
First thing: Nothing I said above is in any way meant to be negative.
At all.
It's just what I think I hear you say.
Maybe you just haven't made the personal connection with the processes of reloading, and the reloading drudgery is too tedious for you
Second thing: We all have different interests and talents, and sometimes a trial run is the only way to know how much you like or dislike something.
Third thing: I want to meet the person who has saved money reloading.:banghead:
Last thing: Keep Your Gear.
Good luck.
