With time on my hand (only one arm is fully functional right now), I decided to straighten up the reloading area and do a quick inventory. I have more than 4,550 various 20 cal bullets, seven 100 ct bags of Winchester brass, two 100 ct Remington bags, 150 pieces of Nosler brass, and two 50 ct boxes of Hornady brass, all new and unopened. I also have over 600 rounds of loaded .204.... And I have y'all to thank for this disease!
UPS delivered another 300 pcs of .221 FB brass for the 20 VT to bring that total to 500. I also have 100 pcs of .17 FB brass that I was going to neck up but now will not be using.
I apologize if my behavior has caused any shortages. I promise to change that. I'm going to shoot more!!!
I'm going to put the Hornady and .17 FB in the Swap Meet to see if anyone wants to trade for folding knife or two.
I'm afraid to open the filing cabinet I use to store the other caliber bullets and brass in - I may have all I need for quite a while and that takes all the fun out of online shopping.
My name is Brian, and I am apparently a hoarder :)

I could have my own .204 Ruger reloading show in the garage! I just pick up a bag or 3 here, a box of bullets there, it all adds up... At least I can use the 32 grain bullets in my 20 VT when I'm able to finally shoot it.
I might have to try and build an AR-15 to use all that brass.

So you're the reason there has been no 204 brass! Sounds like you have a busy winter planned out. I'm in the same boat, got lots of VT to make!

Brian, don't feel badly when most of us started out we didn't have much of anything to work with either. Stay with it and you'll get a good stock built up eventually.

I'd rather have lots of furry little four-legged critters to shoot at than an overabundance of components...
