    Looked in to a ffl. Until i have the money / space / place and zoning it's far from happening. Probably 1-2 years down the road again depending on logistics. What good is a business where your main product, components, is unavailable, in qty. Hell i'm hoarding my stash due to inability to resupply.
    Yeah i'd like to order 2K of 40 S&W, sorry we can only sell you 50 That's a business plan for failure.

    Word of the day when it comes to reloading: OCD

    If you are OCD and check ALL of your steps very carefully along the way, you will never have a problem. Read through a manual twice to really understand what the order of operations is and signs to look out for. You can do a lot by starting to prep your brass (clean/decap/size) and loading in batches saves time (having prepped brass, spend a day priming brass, then you have a bunch of brass you can just drop powder in, add a bullet and be done).
