Very true. I don't recall the last deer I killed using factory rounds. In addition, a LOT of my pistols are not loaded by the factory or they're unavailable even when supplies are normal. Case in point, two of my favorite prairie dog hunting guns, XP-100's in 22 Rem Bench Rest and 6mm Rem BR.

Most of my guns have seen about 80-90% reloaded ammunition. The only factory ammo I usually buy (when reloading supplies are available) are hollow point defense rounds. I like their crimped bullets, sealed bullets, low flash powder, sealed primers, and nickel-plated cases.

But reloading is definitely a hobby in itself. I love trying out new power/bullet combos.
