Your story is funny, but so true. With the 650 just fill the powder and shot jugs and pull the handle while making sure the primer drops and you place the wad in the wad setter and you have a completed shell. Reloading brass is much more time consuming, but the results are well worth it once the proper load for your rifle is found.I've had a few people interested. They were excited about pulling the handle on the 650 but soon lost interest when I started them on brass prep.
