Felix,
It seems to me that we have folks of two extreme camps trying to share the same public space... I get grief from the purists because I refuse to use black powder- I made by following a mule around with a bucket and saving his pee- in my Trap Door Springfield and grief from the techno geeks because I suggested an off the shelf bullet mold to a guy who bought a gun show 98 Mauser in 30-06, that he probably spent $200 on, and was looking for a good load. I offered no insult to anyone and I understand pedantry is common in people who love the esoteric.
I think that more people will rediscover bullet casting as commercial ammunition disappears from the civilian market. This said you have to walk before you can run and a little dose of convention might keep new readers interested in this forum.
As far as being an old man…. I don’t see any twenty year olds giving up sports cars and girl chasing to devote their evenings to Winchester High wall collecting or Krag rifle restoration. I was directed to this forum when searching for load data for a 71/84 Mauser. This should give you an idea of how people discover this sight in the first place.
I guess the right thing to do is to just shut up and not participate and leave the discussion to the experts just like we do with the politics of our once great nation.
