    With good content and following you could make 1500-2000 dollars a month. There are some good Youtubers on here. Win94AE is one of my favorites but he’s not very popular by YouTube standards. I changed how I scoped my 44 magnum rifles from one of his videos. The topic you posted both in 9mm and 44 are only talked about never really tested. And if they are tested they are unscientific. Broad appeal is what I read in the majority of what you write.

    Interesting, I don't take any thing on YouTube very seriously and watch very few as I have seen some real garbage on YouTube.

    I am sure Larry could make some entertaining videos but what he does best is present test data in an understandable way. He does that with his writing. I don't think it is entertaining, it is informative. With it being written down it gives a reader time to digest it. I probably read Larry's posts half a dozen times.

    Back when HANDLOADER accepted articles from free lance writers this information which Larry posted would have been gladly accepted for inclusion in the magazine.
    With the changes in editors over the years and the dumbing down of the published articles in deference to trying to increase sales to a larger group of readers, such material as this has been deemed too technical for the masses.

    It's too technical for most people who view Youtube videos

    PS I would never post a video about reloading, especially one that has any data in it.

    Did you use the same lot of brass for this test?

    Of course......The same lot of brass were used in all the tests including the same lot of 357 Magnum brass. The only variable was the primer used.

    As wmitty posted above, this is the type of info we used to be able to glean from shooting magazines. Larry, thanks for sharing it, we are lucky to have your knowledge on this forum. Keep up the good work!

    Excellent article, Larry. My observation has nothing to do with pressure or velocity. I loaded some SR primers in 9mm brass by mistake, noticed the error before loading powder and lead, and decided to snap the primers. My Taurus Millenium had +60% FTF, while my wife's EC9 popped every one, including the ones the Taurus wouldn't fire.
    Don't want no one to git hurt, but if you're gonna have a wreck, I wanna watch.
