Same here. I started with cast high-velocity loads for the .44 Magnum (anyone else shoot 22 grains of 2400?), then got into IPSC and had to get a progressive press to keep up with practice ammo.
That evolved into accuracy loading when I got a 1000 yard rifle in .300 Win Mag, and no one was loading the 220 and 240 BTHP-MKs. I also found that there is an amazing amount of accuracy potential in case prep.
I now have the kit for everything from .223 to .45-70, and 12 gauge as well, but until recently, commercial reloads and surplus were so cheap that I was doing very little reloading. If prices remain this high, I may have to start up again.
