I do the same. Got a set of 7-08 dies probably 5 years before I found the rifle I wanted. One piece at a time.

I'm in the same boat Dan is in, got the brass, bullets, primers and powder, but still waiting on the 6 BRA and the dies from Bat Machine. Plus the SEB rest and bullbag from Ernie.

Just finding interesting brass at the range can be a catalyst

I bought RCBS dies and Weatherby brass for the 6.5 Wby RPM about 2 years before I got the rifle. Same thing with the 375 H&H Mag.

I had my hands on the dies and brass for the 6.5 Creedmoor for over a year before I finally found the rifle I wanted, my .270 WSM was over ten years.

Buying my first 9mm pistol was the result of seeing lots of brass laying on the pistol range. Started picking it up for others and realized that I need one of these. Now have 2 thinking of getting a third. Habit forming.

A nice 1911 in 9mm is always a good choice for another pistol.
I almost did thaf exact same thing with an rpmI bought RCBS dies and Weatherby brass for the 6.5 Wby RPM about 2 years before I got the rifle. Same thing with the 375 H&H Mag.
