[QUOTE="J-B welder, post: 2093643, member: 115997"] Hope this doesn't sound too ignorant, but is that trickler homemade by any chance? I'm very new at this and since I'm still trickling my loads from a Lee dipper I'm not familiar with the range of tricklers out there. As a rank newbie, it's interesting to read the comments from experienced handloaders. When I read the original post, my first thought was "Hey, all the reloading manuals say to eliminate any and all possible distractions." But even the first time I read that admonishment in a manual I thought "That's a bit extreme. I'll bet some attorney advised them to put that in there." I understand the sentiment, but it reminds me of some folks I once encountered on a motorcycle safety forum who planned every ride, no matter how short or where it was, so they wouldn't have to turn left across traffic. I never told any of them they were crazy or stupid; if it made them feel safer, awesome. I didn't see the need, myself. At this point, I'm still consulting the manual while I load to make sure I don't screw something up. I imagine some day down the road I might feel like I have it seated in my brain well enough to have some music on. I'll load the way I feel safe and live with the consequences. [/QUOTE]
