When my reloading/shooting/hunting partner and Mentor died in 2017, I quit casting, reloading, and hunting. I am only now beginning to thaw.
I have not used most of the presses, dies, lube & sizing equipment, GUNS, etc., since 2017. I have been thinking about chucking it all, going on a selling binge, turning it into cash, and forgetting about it.
Seems I can't do that. I would "miss the mess" too greatly and, after a lifetime in this hobby, there isn't ANYTHING to take its place.
