I'm not saying that I believe that you shouldn't carry reloads because of the above, merely pointing out that in can be a factor IF there are enough other factors where you end up in court over a shoot.
Of the 4, the Bias case is the most disturbing. The defendant claimed it was a suicide attempt, which according to reports the police initially believed. Because the forensic evidence didn't add up though, the man spent the next 10 years defending himself at the cost of becoming bankrupt and still ended up a convicted felon.
If I needed to carry reloads for whatever reason I would and the last thing I'd be worried about was any liability because of it. But like ngcsugrad09, I just don't see any good reason to do it. I reload for bulk, not for precision. Could I take additional steps and add the precision I'd want to load defense ammunition? Sure, but again, why bother?
