[QUOTE="Mysticplayer, post: 45709, member: 8947"] [b]Re: What reloading manuals are most accurate to y\'all?[/b] I hope there are lots of people in your area or else that hands on approach is going to be tough. I am sure you have thought of this already but, just because a load shoots well for you, may not shoot well for the another shooter. You really have no control on their skill level or shooting environment. Could lead to some interesting and frustrating phone calls. Also, although though this board is dedicated to LR hunting, Myself and others take the ABILITY to shoot LR very seriously. Having a rifle/load capable of hitting a gong at 500yds on a range does not necessarily make that rig suitable or capable of hitting an animal at the same distance under field conditions. I can only voice my view point that if I were to offer any type of service to promote LR hunting, I would certainly want patrons to understand the responsibility and ethics before pulling the trigger. "see it shoot it" does not work for me. Most hunters today have precious little time and interest to shoot. At 200yds and under, that is bad enough with many wounded animals every year. At extended ranges, simply irresponsible. I am sure you know where this soap box is going so please take the time and ensure your stuff goes to people that will respect the potential for success and failure. We don't need anymore BuBBa's launching lead around the countryside just because they are armed with the newest super magnum with super tuned ammo and a rangefinder. Good luck with your business venture. Jerry PS when I get posts that don't quite rub me the right way, I either ignore it or respond by personal email/off site. Keeps the bitching to a min. on these wonderful boards. We get enough cat fighting in our everyday lives. [/QUOTE]
