Re-loading supplies, black powder & miscellaneous shooting equipment

Each reloader in Grantville will have new brass cases or shotgun shell hulls equal to the amount of live ammunition already on hand. For example, a reloader who has 600 rounds of live ammunition in a particular caliber or gauge will have an additional 600 empty cases/hulls in that caliber/gauge. That person will also have sufficient primers, powder, bullets or shot to reload every case/hull they have until it fails; usually 4-7 reloads per casing (depending on manufacturer).

As for muzzle-loading firearms, anyone with a musket, rifle or muzzle-loading shotgun will have from 10 to 50 lbs of black powder. Other shooting supplies include an electric furnace for melting lead, various bullet molds, patches/shotgun wads and patch grease.

A typical example of a person who has both smokeless-powder and muzzle-loading firearms and who also does reloading is as follows:
