[QUOTE="MOA Chaser, post: 1084654, member: 84330"] I'm having fun just learning as I go. If you take the time to read, watch a few videos, you will pick up the basics. After a few books that I picked up cheap on my Kindle I noticed that a lot of the stuff was repetitive. So I figured that if several "experts" all said the same thing then there must be something to it. Check mark on that! I handload as well, and if you really want to learn the "ins and outs" of your gun, start making ammo for it. :) I was thinking the other day about getting some expert instruction but then I figured what is the fun in that? Sort of like if you were a kid and you get a big box of presents for Christmas and before you get a chance to open it someone tells you exactly what is in it. Yea, it still might be fun, but the fun and surprise is gone. This afternoon I loaded up 9 rounds of ammo, went to the range, poured a nice glass of Cabernet, and watched the sunset as I dinged steel at 500 yards with a load I'm working up. It just don't get any better than that. :D [/QUOTE]
