I know reloading for a friend is really never a good idea. Here are the circumstances that have me considering it.
My friend bought a brand new Ruger Redhawk 44 Magnum. This is a gun that I have coveted for a long time and I think he bought because he's heard me talk about it so much, but for now it's beyond my reach. I honestly think it is the best looking gun I have ever seen! The wood is so nice and the stainless finish...beautiful!
He says he loves to shoot it but only does so on a limited basis because of the cost of ammo.
He bugs me to reload for him on a weekly basis and I tell him it's not a good idea and explain to him why. Now he says that he will give me the gun to work up the loads. He will buy the dies and all components, and, here's the best part, he will let me take the gun whenever I want to target shoot.
What do you guys think? If I do it what rules should I set?
I would for sure tell him that the reloads must only be shot in this gun.
