No, reloading is not out of the question, I just purchased my first wheel gun (Ruger Flattop Bisley model 5235), and do not currently reload any handgun ammo. Have been reloading shotgun for skeet, trap and hunting for years, but just haven't had any reason to reload handgun in the past. Looks like I might have to start reloading .44 Special and 45 Auto if I want to shoot and keep costs down.
Have been checking Georgia Arms, but they are apparently out of .44 componets, check back. Have purchased their stuff at local gun shows,
and have been pleased with it.
