    Longest you've gone Not Reloading?

    I'm around 10 months I think. Haven't shot much and work, girlfriend and woodworking haven't taken my time.

    What's the longest break from reloading you've taken?

    well there was that nine years when i was married. that woman spent my money before i even seen it. but that was my fault.

    Now it's just a few weeks at a time.

      Several years after having kids and buying a house, those took priority. I think it was about 12 years. I've made up for it buy buying all new reloading,casting and swaging equipment.

            Late April the house in Wisconsin sold. Packed all the presses,powder,primers ect. Moved into the new house in Prescott Valley Az. this past Friday.
            I don't see myself reloading for at least a month. Have to sort through lots of boxes,built another loading bench. Good thing I have plenty of factory 45acp ammo to break in my new Les Baer SRP

                Does this count ladders?

                If you ignore ladders then about 6 months, but if ladders count, then about 3 weeks...

                      Me too. Long hiatus. Then kids got older and I started back up. Funny thing though, reloading equipment doesn't go bad. Just set it up and got going again like it was last week. In fact that's really good information for people to know, for a lot of reasons. Once you have the equipment, it'll always work.

                      They're not liberals, they're leftists. Please don't use the former for the latter. Liberals are Locke, Jefferson, Burke, Hayek. Leftists are progressives, Prussian state-socialists, fascists. Liberals stand against the state and unequivocally support liberty. Leftists support state tyranny.

                        About 2 years. Just finally got back out and shot about a month ago and it's back on. Re-vamped my setup and am trying to streamline the operation a bit. Not easy with about 12 different weird, old calibers and a reloading closet in disarray, but i'm getting there. Also about to finish some projects that'll bring some new stuff into the mix. Woo!!!!

                            About 20 or so years, maybe even closer to 25.
                            I stopped shooting and reloading when my daughter was born, no idea why but i just didn’t shoot and didn't miss it while she was growing up. Back into it seriously last 5 years and now I reload monthly and shoot minimum of twice a month.
