Reloading Myths

With recent government administrations intent on clamping down on gun ownership and ammunition supplies becoming more unstable, interest in reloading has surged as citizens strive to become more self-reliant for their ammunition needs. However, there are several misconceptions regarding this engaging hobby. In this article, we discuss 3 reloading myths that you should know about.

1. Factory ammunition is better

   First off, there’s a common myth that ammunition produced in factories is automatically of higher quality. This belief usually comes from those with no experience of reloading. While mass-produced ammo has certainly improved in recent decades, it still cannot match the accuracy and reliability of reloaded ammunition that is customized to an individual gun specification.

2. Reloading is much cheaper

   Many people believe that reloading your own ammunition will be far cheaper than buying it pre-made. The truth is a bit more complicated and depends on your individual circumstances. The real economies are made by shooters who use a high volume of ammunition, although factory-made ammunition prices can rise suddenly – as such, owning your own reloading supplies may be a prudent measure for the future.

3. Reloading isn’t safe

   By far the most common misconception is the belief that reloading isn’t safe. This simply isn’t true. Producing your own ammunition does carry a risk factor, but these risks can be controlled for. As long as you follow the proper safety protocol and take your time then you should not experience any problems.
