    I started reloading in 1995 and picked up on casting boolits in 2007......

    Try being informed instead of just opinionated.
    Sometimes it is better to just smile and walk away.

    Moderating is a responsibility not a privilege, abuse your power and you lose, no matter how powerful you may think you are.
