I am in more danger driving to work than in shooting my reloads!

If one lacks enough attention to detail to load their own ammunition then they should not.

BFT,

Makes a solid point that attention to detail is everything in reloading.

Drew What was the cause in the picture you posted above? My guess is obstruction given the position of rupture. Unlikely a shell issue itself I would think.

"If one lacks enough attention to detail to load their own ammunition then they should not." - BFT

Reloaders have confidence in their ability to safely assemble shotgun shells, but mistakes can happen. They accept the fact that although a mistake is improbable, it is not impossible. Those who choose not to reload simply don't see it as worth the risk, period. I reload and do all I can to eliminate risk.

yes I agree, I don't think I have bought more than 10 factory boxes of any trap loads in my 45 years of shooting, I load 100 % of all my clays and hunting loads. I though the same thing about driving to work, than I went down a few post and read this one, hit it on the head Mark! Glad no one was hurt scott
