No, but I overbought many years ago; I still have boxes of Remington 44-40 and 38-40 bullets (components) in the red and green paper boxes that are 30+ years old. I don’t think I’ll run out anytime soon; heck, they are probably collector’s items!![]()
Keep a spread Sheet or a tally of reloading supplies and bullets and ammunition on hand as a reminder to get things that you may run low on ?
Also do you keep that list with you ?
Are there prices indicating what you last paid so you know if it's a good deal ?
Or am I just anal ? (I can answer that myself)![]()

My problem is that I should do just as you state. I end up buying somethings that I already have a good supply of.Sometimes I'll make a list of what I need if I'm going out looking for that type of stuff. I don't think it's anal and is actually probably a good idea.

I do on a piece of paper. no computer files or spread sheets (yet)
Nope, I fly blind![]()
i have enough i have to keep it all in ammo cans of various sizes. i do keep a list of what i have and in which number can it is in. all of the primers and bullets are kept this way. the powders i can just look on the shelves and see what i have. don't keep track of the price. if you bought it, it doesn't really matter since i don't sell anymore.
I struggle to keep up with what my kids are able to shoot when home on a weekend so I am always low...lol
I have found a free download program that is great but find the time commitment difficult to meet and the time for the paper equally difficult to meet.

I'd like to be that well organized; fortunately, the road to heaven is paved with good intentions.

No, but it's a good idea. I just can't believe how costly that part of the hobby has become. Like many here I've been a handloader for a long time. The prices of ammo and the reloading components are going through the roof. I keep logs in the reloading manuals but I really like your idea of a spreadsheet. That's how I maintain gun records - Excel.

Computers? You can't shoot a computer! Just think of the guns you could have bought with the price you paid for that stinkin' computer.
