We all were new reloaders once. Some grew up doing it and some learned later. I'm sure we all had some "dumb" misconceptions before we started our adventure in making ammo.
Here is one of mine. Before I started reloading I had no idea about it. I was hanging out on gun forums some, and I seen folks talking about using 32 grains of powder for example. I though man, it must suck to count out 32 granules of powder for each cartridge you load. Then when you see .5 grains, I imagined cutting a granule of powder in half to get it.
Boy was I green.
I read the ABCs of reloading, then the lyman 48th. And with a little help from a few members on the forums I was on, began a very satisfying journey.
Just thought I'd share that humorous snippet.
