    I'm deeply but very undeservedly flattered. I simply don't belong in that list, my friend.

    Who did you write for?

    Your website will be missed. I've been reloading almost as long as you and I still go back and re-read your "reloading 101". It is required reading for any new reloaders I work with.

    I printed a copy for future reference for the new reloaders since the site will be gone. Hopefully you will still be here at GB, since I always found your advise to be spot on.

    Thanks for the years the site was available.

    Grew up reading Jack. Got to shake Elmer's hand and had a signed book.

    Rocky, I well recall your article on plated bullets in Handloader magazine....I bought a Ruger .44 Special as a result of that article. I don't usually note authors of magazine articles but did on that one. As has been said, what other publications have you written for?

    And I would like to thank you for your service: Both here and in the military.

    At one time or another, I've had articles in every shooting magazine except Shooting Times and Guns & Ammo. Shooting Times doesn't use any freelance material and G&A had an editor who wanted me to change a product review to favor an advertiser. So I couldn't submit to ST and I wouldn't submit to G&A.

    I also wrote for all the "Digests" and similar annuals. I have two of what I consider "pinnacle" achievements: I did the first major article on reloading the 9mm Makarov for American Rifleman and I had the cover story for Handloader on the .375 Win.

    I got an email this morning asking me to compile all my stuff on a DVD for sale. I'm considering it, but I'll most likely just give it away or make it cheap enough to just cover my expenses.

    That's very cool, I wish you well in retirement.

    I learned a TON from you regarding loading low-power loads in .30 caliber.
    Your work is much appreciated by myself and many, many friends who do the same.

    I also appreciated your responses to questions I have had over the years on this very forum.


    Thank you Sir!

    I'd be interested in your 'collected' works!

    Glad you made it out in good shape. I was a friend of Charles Cutshaw. He fell down some stairs at his house and died.

    If you do, make sure you let us know.

    Not to worry (too much); it's been crawled by the internet wayback machine so you can find comprehensive, if not total, archives.
