Painful subject for me.
Reloading was a big part of "Me".
Now, I can't find powder, bullets, primers, etc, etc.....
When I DO (rarely) find components, I can't afford them without scrimping and saving. By that time, whatever I've found is either gone or doubled in price.

I come from an era where a flat of 100 primers was .99 cents.
A pound of powder was less than five bucks.
Sierra bullets came 101 to the box.
Once fired AA hulls were a nickle each.
Lead shot came in 25 pound bags.
Reloading actually saved you money.
A box of .270 Win 130 grain was like $3.95.
