Looking at a big loading spree

[Mobuck]

I've had a lot of clutter around my reloading area for too long. The new shop building is getting storage shelving built to relieve that clutter. When the space is cleared, I plan to begin a 'loading spree' to fill the wet and nasty spring period.
I have two (maybe 3) 8# jugs of WCC 844, 5-7K of .224 bullets, and plenty of sized/trimmed/primed .223 brass. That should last me 2-3 weeks.
I'd been putting this off due to storage concerns for the loaded ammo but storage may not be an issue by November.

Nice. I do the same thing every year after deer season to kill time until spring gobbler.

I used to keep as much of my brass reloaded as I could all the time. But as I've aged,, I realize that handloaded ammo can not be sold. Add in that my sons don't shoot as much as I do, so I have changed my directions.
Now,, I buy the necessary components, clean my brass, and load enough to enjoy for a much shorter period of time. I load a lot of my competition ammo often, & don't stockpile too much. Other stuff, I'm still dragging out older boxes of ammo occasionally to empty the brass, & enjoy it!
And when the time comes,, they can sell the components legally, and easily.

I'm right there with you. I have too many reloads stockpiled so I've been off to the range to use it up.

Did you take out a second on the house yet to buy the primers?

"Did you take out a second on the house yet to buy the primers?"
Nope, stocked up when the 'Big Zero' was elected. A few hundred dollars spent then now paying back 10X on investment.

Now that I've found 90gr Lehigh loads my 9mm's and 357sigs like I'll be ordering 500 bullets from Natchez so I can fill my mags and have a few to top things up when I do my every few months verification shots.
