Thanks to everyone who helped me. I shot 20rds of my first reloads. The process is a lot of fun, it's even more fun to turn around and shoot them.

Thanks again

  My first reload was used last week to kill a raccoon that had killed one of our ducks, and was tearing up our barn.
  
  Satisfying? Oh yeah! [:D]

  Tell you the truth. I winced with the first round. I fired it one handed. I read all the horror stories in the books and on this site. I was afraid I was going to blow up. Even though I double and triple checked everything.
  
  Well, they shot great. They were light loads and very manageable with follow up shots. They also grouped a little better than the factory loads I USED to shoot. One hellofa muzzle flash. It was getting dark when I fired the last few. I probably shot 100rds, 20 of which were my reloads. The factory load don't put much of a flash out. I wander what that thing looks like in the dark.

  I am glad to here that the loading is going well. You will find that it won't save you money because you will shoot more.
