Eric Here. This week im shifting more time to posting on this vs the messenger app.

Retired Army field artillery warrant. Retired as a CW4.

Have been reloading since mid 80s. Mainly shotshell and 30-06 back then. Now I reload for well over 100 calibers. I enjoy oddballs, obsolete cartridges, and old cats.

Originally from Texas. Retired from the Army and settled in Conowingo, MD. Current Army Civilian.

I'm Jeremy in <gag> Illinois. Try not to hold it against me.
Can't say I'm much of anybody but am a reloading enthusiast and supporter of our veterans. Since we are quite limited as to what types of firearms we can use for hunting big game in this state, I find myself reloading/shooting handguns more than anything else (you might get a hint of my favorite from looking at my username and avatar). Plus, they're easier to sneak into the house and hide than a rifle or shotgun!
Hoping this site proves to be a positive impact on our vets!

Roby here, pronounced like Toby not Robbie as most folks try to. Hahahaha.
Central Kentucky between Mammoth Cave and Fort Knox. Retired Army 2010 54B, 11B, 42A, and a DoD Civilian G2 for Aviation Command leaning forward in the foxhole towards retirement in 2027.
Been reloading for many years mainly Lever Actions and Wheel Guns and 12ga, .410 for wife’s Henry Axe.

Theology and Biblical Studies are my main passion, teaching and sharing The Gospel are my commission from the Lord, also beating my plowshares into swords (reloading), so….

May the Lord bless and protect all of you and may you seek Him with all your heart and soul, He is knocking at your door all you have to do is open it and invite Him in.

Awesome. I beat you in military retirement by a year but you will beat me in Army civilian retirement by a year.
