    Good job. I thought the filming was very clear and the background was decent.

    I doubt this is your first endeavor with filming but you have a gift for sure. I enjoyed your video and wish you the best.

    I don't watch many Youtube videos, but I really enjoyed viewing that one, nice job.

    Two things that I found hard to watch though were when you tapped the side of that beautiful MP brass mold with a stick, rather than the hinge bolt to get the boolits to fall free... And the gangster style of carry. Different strokes for different folks I suppose.

    If the carry method works for you, go with it. Any gun that I carried close to my skin like that would rust shortly on me, and I would likely drop it in the mud sooner or later while climbing under or over a fence.

    I bet you could cut the sprue by hand with that glove however, and a light tap on the bolt rather than the mould blocks would drop the boolit just as easily, and have the added benefit of being kinder to the mould. (that operation may be a bit more difficult to perform quickly on camera though)

    Despite those two little nits to pick, it was still a most excellent video. I enjoyed the narration as well as the theme and music you set it to. I look forward to watching your next video as well.

    Cheers.

    Finally a breath of fresh air from a you-tube video. Most aren't worth watching, this one truly is. Nice job.

    One of the most endearing sights in the world is the vision of a naked good-looking woman leaving the bedroom to make breakfast. Bolivar Shagnasty (I believe that Lazarus Long also said it, but I can't find any record of it.)

    I go along with the others tips, but my tip is for us old farts that have trouble hearing. Your voice "cracks" making it a guessing game for us hard of hearing,(deaf-as-a-post) folks. Since I couldn't "see" you talking I couldn't read lips either.

    Otherwise it's a well done video, short and to the point. Keep it up!

    I thought it was a very good video for the lay person. The only ting that made me cringe was whacking a mihec mold. I just use a gloved hand to open them.

    A great video for sure,
    my thinking parallels most of the comments so far,
    I'd only add one thing, Maybe an actual shot being fired...maybe in slo-mo.

    Interesting video right up until you hit that MP mold, made me cringe and then almost fell out of the chair when you hit the pins to slide them out. Didn't see much after that, going cross eyed will do that ya.

    Well done. I enjoyed it. I use a wooden handle to break open sprue plates as well. Does not harm a thing.......

    I greatly appreciate the compliments, and tips. Seriously, coming from the members in this forum, the compliments mean a lot. I might just have to make another video one day!

    ...and apparently, You can just open the mihec with a gloved hand... who knew?!? I'll have to try that next time around.

    I also thought the voice was a little quiet at first, but the guy who edited it did it on a computer with speakers and a sub said a lot of the lower tones are lost on laptop speakers and such making the voice hard to hear. I plugged in my speakers and it was a lot easier.

    Oh, and I really wanted to have a shot at the end too... really, really wanted to, but at my current location I don't have a shooting home, and my buddy wanted to get it filmed the day we did, so no shot...

    Very well done. I enjoyed it.

    You need to secure the Loadmaster better. It needs to be solid on the bench.

    That was the Mihec 359-125 HP or Mihec 9mm -125 HP, a great mold! It was a bummer that the boolit drop shot that got used had wrinkled boolits, but hey they still fly straight out of the nine...
    Great job on the video. I have that same mould and it does drop beautiful boolits.
    Keep up the good work. We need more people to understand what we do.

    LOL, I saw that too. I have had to use a wooden hammer handle a few times on new Cramer moulds to lightly tap the pins until the mould started breaking in.
    I'll agree with another post too. The reloading machine needs to be secured better.
    Overall though, it was a great job.
