    There is no such thing as too many tools, especially when it comes to casting and reloading.

    Safe casting and shooting!

    Good morning
    Way too many ... but often add another just to enjoy the option.

    38-50 and 414 Supermag and 41 Colt and 50 Remington would rank right at the top.

    I have dies for over 40 different cartridges, but I don't actually load for all of them at any given time. I also have several duplicate (and triplicate) sets of dies, but I think I'm going to keep the best ones and sell the rest once I return to the States. I don't really need 3 complete sets of .303 British dies, for example - even though I have 3 different Lee Enfields.

    Oh, but I do need to add another cartridge to the mix; I'm having a .458 Lott Express Rifle built while I'm overseas.

    Yep. Found him froze to a tree.
    Damn! He was a wild one, old Hatchet Jack. He was livin' two year in a cave up on the Musselshell with a female panther. She never did get used to him.

    Only 3 handgun calibers and one rifle caliber so far, but I'm still new at this and my addiction is getting worse!
