Dangerous Reloading Practice

[Teri Anne]

Maybe a bunch of us should get together and get a educational grant to study the effects of tumbling on different powders. See if ball or flake are more or less prone to degradation than stick powders. I can think of all kinds of experiments to try.

Why don't we just err to the safe side and not take a chance on tumbling reloaded ammo. Probably unlike many others, I wipe the lube off of each round using a microfiber cloth. Only takes a few minutes and I don't have to worry if tumbling is going to change my load. Really gentlemen. You go through all the steps to make the most accurate ammo that you can, then you take a chance on damaging it??

I don't want to tumble MY ammo. Just want the grant.

I'll roll with the sciency guys on this one that actually manufacture the stuff.

In order to get a grant you have to apply for it. If you want it that bad the start checking to see what it takes.. Nobody said it would be easy, but looking at what some others have gotten grants for there is probably a pretty good chance that if, one was to properly prepare the paperwork, and spin some environmental twist on it. You could make it happen. Again, Nobody said it would be easy.
