Oh yeah!
I was reloading 7mm Rem Mag with the Lee Wack A Mole style reloader at the dining room table.
My girl friend (wife now) put a quick end to that! Lol

Yep, Christmas day when I was 18. I received a RCBS Rock chucker kit and some components. I read the steps in the reloading manual several times and then proceeded to load 1 round 22-250. I drove outside of town and shot that one bullet. When it shot normally, I was relieved and pretty proud. I've been reloading ever since. And, I still have and use that RC press.

My uncle taught me when I was 13. 270 wsm. Still got the gun and some of the brass. Parents got me a Lee kit that was super cheap and made thousands of rounds. It's all been majorly upgraded over the 25 years.

Bought a s&w .500 revolver in college because I thought it was cool. Quickly learned college kids can’t afford ammo for that gun with other important things to spend money on. Bought a rock chucker kit and proceeded to load hundreds of rounds for that gun. Now I reload for maybe 10 different calibers and I still love doing it 23 years later.

Like yesterday. 40 years ago. Young and dumb about it. Damn the pressure signs, full speed ahead!
I've matured and so have my handloads.

I think many of us can say this quite easily but prob better said "and still have my hands and loads".
Very nice. Haven’t gotten into making rounds myself bout would like to eventually.
