Learning the basics of the process

Angeles reloading was told the same thing ,maybe the D.O.J. If not the A.T.F.that's why they haven't had a class in months of not years.
Maybe we can find a lawyer that reloads.

I have come up with some work arounds, angeles could put a component
Package together and sell them to students.but you're fighting agencies with huge budgets.

That is scary that they monitor reloading classes like that . Pay all those taxes and fees to the government to fund their anti gun agenda monitoring the folks that fund it ,thats sad.

Speaking of videos . I have one on right now by a popular guy . At the beginning he says...later on in this video I made a major mistake with a powder charge . It was something 6 grains below listed starting load . Instead of editing the mistake out he just gave a warning at the beginning . What if a person missed his addendum and followed his listed charge ? I guess one blessing would be it was under starting load rather than over max charge . I also heard him say numerous times on other videos when he screws up he says, " ya know what, I am a idiot " . What I am getting at is a person needs to be a knowledgeable reloader before he can tell the difference before good/bad info on the internet , so books are great starting point.

Which is exactly why I agree with this:

only requirements to post a video is knowing how.

Occasionally I'll see a "how to" video on a specific automotive repair that I'm intimately familiar with... sometimes it's could be helpful but sometimes I'll cringe and hope nobody actually tries to fix their car that way. Can't imagine reloading videos would be much different.

I agree with the folks that recommend a book, whether hardcopy or downloadable. Most any company producing data will have a whole section of introduction, safety precautions, and fundamental operations. Get a grasp of those things then decide how immersed you wanna become.

I have a hard time with most videos. Too much blather and BS. Books just give the information without all the pointless stuff beating around the bush to say something using 200 words instead of the 20 that are necessary.

And a lot of mis-information and old wive's tales, aka "internet wisdom". Way too many "mouth breathers", runny noses, "uuuhhhh", shakey, out of focus cameras. Too many just talk, talk, talk taking three times too long to say anything. And 90% start out "Hey guys, what's happenin'?

As you can see I don't like, won't watch, and will not recommend any youtube video on guns or reloading...
