After playing with some loads for my .308, I'm a little consumed with bullets, ballistics, and thoughts of "I wonder what 'X' would do for me?" This turns into…I'd like another rifle, and scope, and……. My accountant (wife) is going to be thrilled.

No problem, welcome to the addiction Yup. One day you'll have $4k in custom rifle and scope and that was doing it on a budget. Reloading equipment gets upgraded constantly.

I always wonder what "X" would do! My brain is always like a computer thinking about different bullets and powder combinations with certain cartridges and such.

I don't even have my LATEST 'want' in my hands and I'm already trying to figure out what the NEXT one will be. What a JOYOUS situation to be in!

Rifles are similar to boats and young women...there's no end to how much money you can pour into them without making them any more useful.

Just wait until those thoughts become ....
"What if I neck this cartridge up/down to ...???"
"No, I don't know everything. I am damn good with Google though"
"Never get into a gunfight with a buffalo hunter. There's no such thing as cover"

I feel your pain. My stock is ordered and should be here tomorrow and I'm down to three scopes but haven't decided which one to order yet.

Yup. It's a sickness.
I've been afflicted with it for a few decades.

I told my wife when I die not to sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them.
