Today was a Great Day!

[Eldraque]

I took my first 300 reloads to the range and shot them out of my P226 and my new P224.

Every round cycled, every round went boom, none of them went KABOOM.

Very pleased with myself, and i feel so excited to make more and shoot more!! And i came home with all of my fingers and both my eyeballs, id say today went great!!

Thanks for your guys help!

There is a certain satisfaction in doing just what you did today. This is the beginning of a long fruitful journey/adventure.

Congrats on your fine day at the range. Reloading offers numerous rewards, one of which is the satisfaction of seeing your own rounds making those nice holes in the target.

It gets better too...... when you can keep finding powder, primers, bullets....

Shooting is fun. Shooting the ammo you make on your own is funnier. Welcome to the addiction!.

Congrats. It's always a satisfying feeling. Starting with the 550 was also a wise move. Reloading has so many facets to it when you really start loading and keeping records. Some shoot for quantity and some über quality. Some keep so detailed records, it borders on complete OCDness. I'm somewhere in between.

Yep. That's the hook that gets you; success. Welcome to reloading. You're going to love (and hate) it!

Just wait until you start casting your own bullets, it gets better!
