[QUOTE="barefooter56, post: 1145112, member: 85389"] Jaxdialation, Actually "using" is what I meant. Some new reloaders want to cut to the chase and not learn proper reloading or testing skills and they read a post or talk to a buddy and just jump right in. I had an experience where a guys buddy gave him a hard time for using one tenth of grain less powder than he was ( they both had "identical" Rock River ARs and were both using the same lot of Reloader 15 and same weight, type, and manufacturer bullets). He bumped his load up and immediately began experiencing blown primers. I was told by him at a match while another guy and I were trying to get his locked up AR apart to get it functioning again for him that it couldn't be the tenth grain difference. It had to be something else. IMHO we all need to watch when we are posting loads. You never know who is looking. I must say it ten times a day " we dont list "pet" or "accuracy" loads due to differences from rifle to rifle. You have to test. Here's how and here's where to find the articles you can reference and keep for future reference. With whats been going on the last 7 years there are a huge number of new shooters coming on line. We all need to be respectful and remember we all started at zero once too. Shooting is a social function lets keep the newbies in the fold and grow our sport(s) . I will now get off my soapbox and yield the floor [/QUOTE]
