    New guy from Michigan

    Hi all, live in michigan, getting back into reloading. I want to get more involved in the process rather than just cranking oout production, looks like the place to be for that.

    Welcome aboard. You found the best site on the net for this subject. No reloading manual available can match the experience available here.

    I grew up in Riverside (Paw Paw River). My dad and his navy buddy did all sorts of shooting between New Buffalo and Alegan back in the 50's when I was growing up.

    Hi neutron. I live near Cadillac. There seems to be more and more of us Michiganders here on this site. Welcome aboard. The people here are some of the most helpful I've ever found.

    Welcome aboard. read everything. I was a lurker for years before I ever joined. I still spend more time reading than posting. Most of my posts were trying to buy equipment. I still don't think I have over 70 posts. But I know how to say hi. HI

    That's not very PC of you, isn't the term supposedly Michiganian?
