[QUOTE="PowellSixO, post: 1037430, member: 66495"] Thanks for the responses guy. I really appreciate it. I'm not taking any jabs at you mudrunner2005. I don't know where that even came from honestly. You've been very helpful believe it or not with me learning as much as I have so far. I joined this site not knowing how to reload period, or even the difference between moa, mil, or mrad. What I've learned from this site, and you in particular, is incredible. I'm no wiz at this whole game (probably never will be ).However I feel now that I can, at minimum, talk with local shooters and local reloaders and know whether they're feeding me good info or bs.
