Thanks to this Forum!
« on: November 25, 2010, 12:11:41 PM »
It's been almost a year to the day that I handloaded by first CF rifle cartridge.  In the last 12 months I have loaded (an almost immediately unloaded ;D) many thousands of rounds.  Since this is the day to give thanks, I want to thank all on this Forum who have help me learn how to safely reload.  I am sure that if I had went into the reloading game by myself I would have probably quit and went back to buying factory ammo.  Thanks again for all the help.

 I am also thankful for Bill let us use the site and all the help from the members of Gray Beards. I have learned to reload(still a lot to learn) I have learned to do a trigger job and accuracy tips, and on and on. Also learned you do not need a high speed repeater to hunt successfully. Thanks to you all.

p.s. my wife is not thankful for this web site. Says it cost to much :D

Amen to all the above.  I too started reloading last April, and it wouldn't have happened without this forum....and I'd still only have one Handi.
