I got into it because i had a .45-70 that i was too cheap to shoot. then my problem became picking up guns in weird chamberings because, "hey, i could just load my own for that." now, i just enjoy working up loads for everything i own
currently i load for:
45-70
250 savage
.270 win
30-06
7.62x39mm
i did load for .264 win mag, but traded my rifle in on the .270. the .270 will do over 3000fps with a 150 grain bullet with RL-26 published loads easily, for some reason the .264 with its 24" barrel would only barely get 6.5 creedmoor velocities with book loads(2800 fps burning 60+gr of powder with 140s...), so down the road it went...no sense in keeping a heavy rifle like that if it won't perform.

Not much for me, yet. Just 35 Whelen and 357Mag/38Spcl at the moment. Will start reloading the 7mmRM next year (have lots of factory ammo for it still that my rifle shoots really well). And soon will start loading for the 35/30-30 once the project is done.
