[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 211688, member: 11717"] Be very careful. You are dealing with explosive materials, primers and powder. Read and re-read all the safety material in your loading manuals. Start with "starting" loads and work up to max. You will know when you get to max, your bolt will get a litle sticky or stiff as well as some other signs. A lot of guns have been destroyed with bad or over max loads. Once while shooting I had a factory case fail on me once that caused a big flash in my face. Good thing I was wearing safety glasses. Throw away your old primers. I would bury them. They might be good but you never know. Why waste time, effort and money in the event they are degraded. Get new ones, they are very cheap. Also, If you can find anyone to show you how to reload, that would be great. Better than just reading about it. [/QUOTE]
