[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 238372, member: 2011"] I used to load for friends, but had trouble keeping them as friends. For example: Friend had a trophy antelope hunt. Lined up on the trophy goat. 6 miss fires before the 7th nailed the goat. Investigation revealed that I had used the small rifle primer seater in the large rifle insert in the Lee priming tool. The cartridge was a 300 Wby. Example: Didn't notice that a primer was inserted upside down. Friend missed a nice muley. Cartridge was a 270 Win. I'll load 'em for testing, tuning and drop chart validation but I do all the shooting. They come over and do the loading for real while I provide the QC. Of my one reloads I've had only one miss fire. That was at a bedded elk, two years ago and was of no consequence. Cartridge was a 338 RUM, US-869 and Fed 215m primers. Investigation show'd no reason for the miss fire.:confused: [/QUOTE]
