I started reloading in 1971 with a classic Lee handloader kit in .45ACP.
I’ve kept records of every round I’ve loaded since then and just hit 230,000 rounds.
I went through several C and O presses and a couple of Star progressive machines. Now, most of my loading is done on a Dillon.
Still, I can screw up. I loaded 20 rounds for testing in my .357AMP and discovered that I’d used the wrong bullet weight! Had to pull the bullets and reload with the right bullets.
Even with 50+ years experience, it’s possible to mess up.
