What have you discussed in the reloading room today?

[45/30-06OKIE]

Hello y'all!
As we seem to always get off track and off topic of what we have actually done in the reloading room, I figured we should start a thread where we discuss reloading adjacent stuff like twist rates, bullet weights, powder storage ideas, things like that...
Let me know if y'all are interested in doing so and that way we won't get our precious thread locked again for getting off topic all the time. I'm not innocent in that at all BTW lol. I'll admit I talk about stuff not quite reloading room related... Also, mags exploding and sending your reloaded ammo that your are testing all over the place and interrupting your precious range time.

Great idea

I'd almost say a "Handloading General Discussion " sub forum, byt the Handloading Reloading forum in itself is that

we seem to always get off track and off topic

I am sorry but you got the longstanding great thread member @horsemen61 started locked for using it as a "chatroom" and moderator Walkalong clearly posted that lock was temporary "couple of days" - https://www.thehighroad.org/index.p...ding-room-today.830858/page-951#post-12632043

Let’s give it a rest for a couple of days, the title is what have you done in the reloading room, it’s not a chat room.

So instead of honoring Walkalong's request and respecting @horsemen61's thread, you start a new "chatroom" thread ... Not very High Road.

We are all human and make mistakes and tend to "deviate/drift off topic/ramble on, etc." at times, especially during winter/snowy months as cabin fever takes toll and THR staff/mods are well aware of that annual cycle (Walkalong and I have chuckled many times over the years in PMs) ... Heck, I am guilty of that as well. (Just checked ... Yup, I am still human)

I figured we should start a thread where we discuss reloading adjacent stuff like twist rates, bullet weights, powder storage ideas, things like that...

This is an open subforum of THR where anything related to "Handloading" and "Reloading" topics are discussed. If you want to discuss twist rate, bullet weights, powder storage ideas, etc., simply start a new thread to discuss such.

Besides, once @horsemen61's thread unlocks in couple of days, there's plenty of leeway to discuss all those above topics "as you do them" on a daily basis.

A friend and I were discussing twist rates on and off last week, he knows I have a bunch of Aguila SSS someone gave me because it tumbles out of 1:16 .22’s and had asked me if I owned a Ruger single six after he learned they were 1:14. So we played a little and that’s still not a fast enough twist.

Want to talk about a gun related topic? Start a thread on it. THR is not a chat room, which is what was going on in the other thread, off topic chatter not related to guns and especially off topic for the subject of the thread.

Want to chat with other members about motorcycles, jobs, work, the guy next door, etc, etc, use the PM system, talk about anything you want to.

@horsemen61 is upset his thread is closed, and I don’t blame him.
