That was very honorable of you to set the record straight regarding your troll status. The guy is just.......helpless.

He's far too emotionally invested in being right. No matter what the actual BHN comes back he will post it as low to support his position that it is the bullets and not his technique that drove the issues.
After all, didn't you look at the pictures? The bullets are obviously soft as Play Doh. :roll:
Could that be any worse than being our site's in-house loob gruve dealer? How d--n much longer will those Loverins be on back-order, anyway? I ordered them in March, and today's missions include picking up candy for the evil little trick or treaters. Yer customer
service points could take a real hit.
Guess I missed it. [smilie=1:
But then... I oft times choose my battles. :D
Time to go move the big C-frame press. :wink:
Do you think we should post a warning on here that Lee FCD will suck the hardness out of your lead? I think that is vital information everybody should be made aware of.
wow just finished reading the hole thing. all I can say is wow.
I my self have only started the reloading endevour, and can tell this guy is a "leadhead"
looks like you got banned from that fourm Love Life.
oh that was some dang good reading ... it sure is nice to know im not the dumbest person on this earth
It happens.
Things like that rub me the wrong way. He was wrong. He has been proven to be wrong, yet he continues to slam a company's product when he is in fact the weak link. He is also dishonest. He has not been reloading for 40+ years. Missouri did not sell defective bullets, but his parents birthed a defective child.
the scariest part is that he will probably continue to reload. Hopefully he will never have an accident, but what if he does.
Last , but not least, people need to be taken to task for their actions and what they say. I have been taken to task quite a few times on this forum, but the difference is I learned from it and apologized to all offended members. This wacko claims all the other posters are wrong, the bullet manufacturer are wrong, etc.
No one learns anything until they're ready to. Hold off on sharing a CastBoolits link with him until he's ready to listen. Don't hold your breath...
I tried the Lee FCD as a last station crimp die instead of using the bullet seating/crimp die to crimp.
Guess what?
It has an internal shoulder that pushed the boolit further into the already crimped case, ploughing lead.
His MB-boolits may still be softer than advertised though. No way of knowing.
Perhaps this thread should be linked over there, or he will maintain that he is the victim of Missouri trolls. When it is in fact the Cast Boolit Mob with torches, pitchforks and chants of "Fit!fit!fit!"..
:-D
Please do NOT link this thread to the other forum! The staff has enough headaches to worry about without intentionally importing a jackwagon from another forum here to argue that he's right and the entire cast bullet shooting and loading world is wrong.
Good Point! Levi
Guys,
That dude (LeadHead), is never going to change his mind. At this point, its all about his pride. I'll bet you $10 that he's been trying some of the advice he has been given, but won't admit that he has.
Even if he realizes that he is wrong, I don't think his pride would allow him to admit it. Although, I think he should cut Missouri Bullets a break. I've used their bullets before and had no problems with them.
whats the saying.."Pride comes before the fall" ???
I've got 2-500 piece boxes of Missouri bullets for 45 Colt that I'm saving for a rainy day. I already shot 2 boxes of them without a single issue. 255gr SWC handful of happiness every shot.
