How much is your reloading time worth?

I really got turned off to the concept as I watched people I liked to work on shooting skills with turn to reloading to save money. Then our shooting sessions changed from being focused on shooting skills to focusing on their load development and assessing why given rounds failed to perform. I will say this for them, reloading gave them a whole new set of excuses for justifying poor shots and gun malfunctions. "I didn't pull that shot, but I may have gotten a bit much powder in that case..."

Maybe you liked developing shooting skills with them more than they liked developing shooting skills with you. Reloading can be about more than saving money. ;)
 
Well it turned out to be a lot of wasted time for those of us wanted to do drills as we waited on those to scrounge around on the ground to find a round that would not fire or a particular piece of brass, because they "needed" to figure out what didn't go right.

You need friends with better reloading skills. I cant remember the last time a round i loaded didnt go bang

Understood. It's unfortunate that a couple of inconsiderate shooters turned you off to reloading. It can be a fun pastime without inconveniencing other shooters.
 
It's a hobby, some people like to work with wood, some people work on cars, so what's the difference, it's all about what you enjoy doing in your spare time.
