Wow! I only reload a half dozen or so and can't seem to keep up with those. I'm amazed at you guys!

Here's my wimpy list: 223, 38 Special, 243, 30-06, 300 WM, and now the 375 H&H...pretty short list. In the passed the list has included 22 Hornet (I miss this one), 222, 22-250, 257 Roberts, 25-06, 45 ACP, 30-30, 357 Mag, 12 ga, 20 ga, hmmm, guess that's it.

Not much of a list compared to you guys, but I have been reloading just shy of 50 years and I still enjoy it and learn something new frequently.
 
I'd sure like to have the dedicated concession supplying you with Powder & Bullets Ray!

Glad to know I am not the only one that reloads a bunch of different stuff.......(243 Win, 257 Weatherby Mag, 270 Win, 7x57 Mauser (soon), 280 Ackley Improved, 7mm Rem Mag, 30-30 Win, 30-06 Springfield, 300 WSM, 338 Win Mag, 358 Winchester, 9.3x62 Mauser, 375 H&H Mag, 375 Ruger, 404 Jeffery (soon), 450 Rigby, 450 Nitro 3.25 in. (soon), 480 Ruger).


Of course, I typically don't experiment with a bunch of different bullet and powder combinations for the most part....I just don't have the time. I usually research recommended powders based on the bullet I want to shoot, and go with that to begin with. For the most part, I usually can reach a bullet/powder combo that is extremely accurate for the ranges I shoot them at....not always, but usually. I tend to spend more time tweaking seating depths, etc. For my purposes, i pretty much exclusively use the Dan Newberry method (OCW) of load development for my hunting roads and it works well.
 
OCD at its finest! My last wife said I had "issues", I traded her for a new Dillon Progressive and do I like my Dillon for high volume shooting! Lol

I just saw Budsgunshop.com has both the guide gun and the African for $1150. FWIW - I bought both and decided to use the Guide gun - I restocked it in a Bell and Carlson stock and I added the Alaska arms floor plate to add a round. I wanted the shorter barrel as I will use a suppressor. I wont go lower than $1100, but I will ship it and no sales tax.

Let me know if you are interested
