[QUOTE="Doublezranch, post: 1836196, member: 32664"] I have taught my oldest son the progressive steps of proper reloading. Once he was able to do every step flawlessly, I told him he had to teach his sister. My daughter has learned the proper progression of reloading from her brother. Now she gets to teach my youngest Z. My children reload their own ammo. If they don’t, they are not going to have anything to put in the gun. They understand the intricacies of reloading an accurate round and how it correlates to being successful in the field. Like several of you mentioned, lack of work and phones can hinder the fruits you are trying to teach. However, if you show these young men and women the benefits of their work, it’s surprising how quickly they use those phones to better their process on the bench. Case in point, my daughter has a wildcat. She fireformed 20 cases. I asked if that would be enough. Answer was yes, trust me. She broke her rifle in during those 20. Then picked her bullet/powder combo and did her own load development. After load development she still had 12 left. In the past 2 hunting seasons she has pulled the trigger 4 times and killed 3 trophy animals and one doe. She still has 8 rounds left. Progression = A series of steps in the reloading process. We do not use a progressive press. [/QUOTE]
