Never Shoot Someone Else's Handloads

[BillsCamino]

Always shoot someone else's reloads. Use their gun

Sounds like you both handled it like gentlemen. Sorry it happened but good on both of you.

And he should stop reloading.

For sure!!

I can’t blame you. I have been hand-loading for as long as I can remember. My father taught me when I was real young. We constantly loaded, when we weren’t shooting, we were loading in order to be able to shoot ! lol.
He taught me to cast also. He left me a good deal of equipment when he died. I already had a fair amount also so we now have a good bit and I only buy ammo I can’t load for. As in .22lr , 12gauge shotgun shells….stuff like that.
As much as ammo cost, it is the only way I can afford to shoot. It gives me a good hobby also. I enjoy it .
I constantly have folks asking me to sell them loads, or load up certain rounds for them…I always turn them down. I load for me, not other folks. I will give my daughter loads when she wants them but that is about it.

That's it. Load for yourself and immediate family only. Anything else and you're asking for trouble dealing with the public

Just glad you are ok sir!
Is the loader on the TRADER?
And when you take a picture and you have your shoes in the picture it’s a must that you take your shoes and socks off and only have pictures of feet!

Gest fer you........

I've never seen a scale that inaccurate!

He had to be using scoops. And not very well

 

[basstracker89]

Correct. Never shoot anyone elses reloads. Ever.

I only buy powder from a dealer in unopened new containers

I've never seen a scale that inaccurate!

I think most scales should be accurate but I could see the dipper method being off depending on technique.

Seems to be about the same accuracy in weighing the powder as measuring ground coffee with a scoop.

According to your handwritten chart, he was pretty damn consistent in his inaccuracies !!!

Glad the damage was minimal and no injuries involved.

Wow. I have a buddy that reloads and he's damaged 3 of his own guns that I know of. A mini-bomb right next to your face, better be sure it's assembled correctly.
