I can honestly say I haven't kept track of the time involved. Thinking back on it, I would estimate, not including time shooting or reloading brass that had already been made, to have about 30-50 hours into making the tools, converting a few guns, and making 200+/- pieces of brass.
Really not much at all in the grand scheme of things, and there have certainly been things I've spent more time on without any results.
Brass conversion is much faster now than it was in the beginning, I would estimate that I could probably make 100 cases in 2-3 hours now. I've made some little tools to make reloading a little quicker as well, so loading (or reloading) those same 100 cases is probably about 45 minutes to an hour of work. (A little more elapsed time, since I drop the fired brass into an ultrasonic cleaner.)
