Any Handloaders/Reloaders out there?

Aside from cigars, shooting and reloading are my other main hobbies. The range I go to has no problem with me smoking while shooting . Just wondering? I have a basic single stage setup with electric scale, case prep center and a damn good amount of powder/primer bullet/brass. Was actually hoping someone had some pistol powder they were willing to trade for rifle powder.

I reload 9,40,45,38,357 and 44mag as well as 223, 204, 308, 30-06. I have a ton of good rifle powder like benchmark(my all time #1 favorite), Varget(a damn close 2nd), more 3031 than i know what to do with, TAC, most all flavors of IMR's rifle side, WIN760 and RL10X. Dont know when i blanked out but the only pistol powder i have left is Bullseye which works with lighter bullets and is my normal 38/357 powder. I have seen online that i kinda works in 40 but the pressures i have seen associated with it are sketchy. Guess i could drag out the chrony and work up in .1 incriments. I just wish i could get some good ol' blue dot, tite-group or unique...think my father in law jacked the last of my unique. So yeah...Bullseye, any thoughts in a 40 shooting 180gr HAP bullets with cci small pistol primers?

Cool deal man! I'm sure we can work something out, if they don't have LMR primers let me know, I can part with about 500 or so. Post sandy hook this has gotten ridiculous! This was my hobby before all that took place, shelves here are still pretty bare. Primers and powder have a 3 month waiting list but bullets are trickling in. I check gunbot a few time throughout the day as well. I won't lie though, it opened my eyes to just how fast ammo and components can run out and as much as I can I'm building a reserve stock and like to help others do the same

Sounds good, maybe we can do a primer for powder trade. I am sitting on a nice stockpile, but Ill be shooting all summer, so it will go quick. If you are looking for projectiles, let me know.
