I reload for everything I own mainly to save money, but also for quality control and as a good hobby. My biggest money saver is my 45-70. I dont own anything wild and crazy (not from lack of desire) so cant answer the question about lack of availability.everything I own is available in stores. Different bullet profiles is a different matter. Finding a full power load in 45-70 in stores can be difficult considering most ammo manufacturers load to trapdoor pressures. Or finding a lead hollowpoint load in 45-70,38 special, or 357 magnum can be fun too.it is much easier to load those yourself than it is to try to find it in store or even online in some cases.
