I have been reloading a long time
Not until about 10 years ago, I have
been reloading my most deadliest
reloads of my life
I reload twice a week and as I get older
I seem to be making more mistakes
If you dare, tell us what your most
deadliest reloads are.
I know I will
As soon as I find my camera I will post a
photo

my 2 week supply of pills in my pill boxes.
But, I have to be more careful not be
talking on the phone or on the computer
while I'm reloading my pill boxes
I have found doubles/missing pills and even
empty boxes
Do you mean deadliest or dumbest?
I had 4 bullets stacked up in the barrel before I saw the 1st sticking out half way.[:0][:0]
Thank God for Rugers![^]
There was also an error in reading tenths and full grains on a 505 scale.
It's clear as you get older one needs to pay closer attention and double check.
I had to pull about 100 32 Longs and 9mms recently as I didn't notice the powder hopper running dry.
I thought you were talking deadest on game. Norma brass, Remington 9.5 lighting a full case of H870 under a 162 boat tail Hornady in my Carl Gustav 7mm Rem. Mag. Required scotch tape over bullet hole to prove the second one was in the same spot at 100 yards.
Dang, you still have H870,[:(!][V][^] how bout startin me an auction[:D]
I still have one pound of it and one box of 162 BT Match Hornady's.
There also might be one box of new Norma brass loaded with those components from back then.
I let my kid brother shoot it and it blew up.
The barrel pivoted on the cross pin like a shotgun, splitting the receiver and stock and one of the two locking lugs.
Brother Gordon wasn't hurt.
There were a few similar acts of genius but this one destroyed a nice rifle.
Didn't help that I left the magazine in but it sure helped that the grips were Pachmayr neopremes. Lower unsupported base of the shell let loose and gases looking for somewhere to go bowed out the grip panel. Stung like a son of a gun. Don't like to think what the grips and my hand might have looked like had the panels been wood.
In my defense I'd just point out that this happened almost 40 years ago.
Never tried it again.
