[QUOTE="snox801, post: 1133852, member: 54383"] Funny I have two friends that reload for the selfs and always want to for others without the gun. I always say something and they get mad. For example last year they came to my range with three different caliber study loaded for up to 300win. When asking about the load they started all at book max. When I voiced concern they got mad and straight faced told me that the loading books must be conservative. They said that is the hottest load for the weakest action they could find. I couldn't help but laugh and say that weird mine say barrel length and what it was shot out. Then gave them examples of my two guns that won't come me close to max especially my 6x45. Didn't matter I was wrong so they shot and they where so excited that the 300 recoiled so hard and mad so much noise. But couldn't hit a 1 1/2 foot steel at 300. After about 20 rounds he hit the smaller target of 8" x10" and said good enough lol. Then they started shooting pistols and the first two shots out of a .357 made a new shoulder about a third of the way up the brass. I asked them to stop and they said I don't know anything. This gun is a ruger titanium and will hold a way over book max which they load a full 2 grains. At that point I had to tell them no more. We still talk but never about guns. I hear all the time from people in town that I don't know **** about reloading. Well maybe not I'm ok with that. [/QUOTE]
