[QUOTE="Kevin Thomas, post: 550809, member: 15748"] shaumee, One other thing you mentioned in your original post, but hasn't been touched on by any of the responses yet; reloading for your buddies. You mentioned being new to the game and having loaded a thousand rounds or so in the M1A, and a couple hundred for other guns, and that's a good start. But reloading for others (even your buddies) is getting into a potentially very ugly kettle of fish. Personally, I'd say no. Not only no, but no way in hell. For the past 20+ years, I loaded an average of 400 to 600 rounds a day, normally six days a week. And with that, I adamantly refuse to load ammo for other people. I also decline shooting other people's handloads, with the exception of a very small circle of friends whom I know to be very conscientious handloaders who know their stuff. Not picking on anyone's abilities here, but just saying, there's a hell of a lot of liability that goes into this business, and a lot of variables that you have no control over. To me, that spells "stay clear" in very plain language. Just a word to the wise. [/QUOTE]
