No it really wouldn't but we do need some kind of disclaimer to protect the forum and ourselves. Double charged or no charge cases blowing up someone's gun could start some trouble. We have to remember that when using a posted load could potentially be unsafe in our firearms. Reloading can be dangerous if not practiced with caution. Always read you manuals and make sure you double check the load against published data.

Knight, I think that's understood. That's like recommending a firearm to someone and it blowing up in their face. We understand what were asking and the legalities of what's involved.

It would be a place us newbies could ask newbie questions about how to start your first round? What does this piece do, or which poweder do you recommend or which bullets are best for 9mm self defense loads?

I mean as for when we start we'll have tons of questions and it would be nice to have a section where we could ask specific questions about reloading from people who have been their and can maybe help us avoid some common problems and such.

I guess you could think of it as a place where we could have our homework double checked so to speak.

Yes good thinking Knight... I dont know what we would do with out you?!

Seriously though, thats a good point, a disclaimer to enter that forum would not be a bad idea.. I havent started to reload yet but i have been reading up on it for the past few months. Everyone should research allot before picking up any equiment.

Come guys you know it is true. Everyone "knew" the coffe at McDonalds was hot too.

Yes! I just started reloading and would like to have another resource for information. It would be great if it could be sub-divided by caliber too.

**Majk** · 09-11-2006, 11:25 AM

Thanks for all the input. Hopefully the right "important" person here at XD talk reads it.

It would be nice to have a live body to ask reloading questions when I get started.

Plus we could have a place to post reloading supply deals.

I am always searching for the best deals on supplies! Good place to put these types of questions!!!!!!!!

With the low cost of ammo in 9, 40, 357 why bother to reload? If ammo goes up, it might be worth the time, effort, cash to start reloading.

Plus, that's all my wife needs to see - computers, rifles, pistols - and now kegs of gun powder!?! And what the H**L is all that machinery doing in the basement!?! Christ - she'll have the FBI on my a*s .......
