I was wondering if others do anything similar to what I do for memorable events. For hunting I keep special-to-me brass or shotshell and write down my story on a notepad, roll it up and insert it into the case mouth and put it in a box in my safe.
For reloading I took the same idea. For every big OOPS moment I keep the damaged/misloaded shell and write down my issue, put it in the case then on the shelf above my bench. I have a few up now from lube dents (too much lube) crushed cases (crimp adjusted wrong) bullets fallen into case (still don't understand this one but it was all Winchester brass) etc. I pulled a couple down recently and posted a pic on here of what sounded like the same issue a poster was describing. Anybody else save their mistakes?
