I wonder if irrational OCD is the definition of a hobby? I do not know, but it struck me recently that it certainly seems to be the definition of my reloading. I started this game to save money when I was shooting Skeet competitively - really saved a LOT for that. But metallic reloading is...

I have been reloading for over 40 years. I was, until today, one of those who said they NEVER trimmed handgun brass. But this thread is to simply point out that even an old dog can once in a while see something new. I have recently been working on testing a lot of new powders with the .357...
