Slovenly reloading.

I reloaded thousands of rounds over maybe 15 years. I never owned a tumbler, and never tumbled a case. Never cleaned a primer pocket. I never bought a round of new brass. I once broke a decapper pin on a rock stuck down in a case.:) I never counted reloads, and only tossed a case when it split. I started with a Lee Loader, a set of dippers and a hammer, and ended with a Dillon. My ammo weren't pretty, but it shot like brand new, and I never had any kind of dud. This is not a recommendation, I'm just happy about all that work I didn't do.:)
