I know now... I thought reloaders was a good keyword.

It appears, besides 'banglist', there are:

'reload'

'ammo'

Sounds like me thread on the NRA convention should have the keyword 'banglist'

'banglist' is the only keyword that is consistently used for firearms related threads. All other keywords are pretty hit or miss.

If you really want to see how popular reloading is do a search on suppliers of reloading equipment like Midway for an example. They have been in business for decades and have done nothing but grow.

There must be millions of reloading presses sitting in garages, shops and dens around the country gathering dust along with tons of components. I have pounds of gunpowder, thousands of primers, boxes of brass and bullets and haven't reloaded a case in the 15 years since I collected it all. I know several people who have supplies that dwarf my collection and haven't loaded much, if anything, for years. There is enough out there to load trillions of rounds of ammo.
