Buying unknown .45 handloads

[Damon555]

Only one person who's reloads I'll shoot besides my own....I'd trust my brother's handloads 100%. I'm very safety oriented when I'm loading and I know he is even more meticulous. No one else.....

Call me crazy, but I'm also very careful. I'm the only reloader in my group of friends. They LOVE to shoot my reloads and my guns. When we go shooting together, I bring the ammo. The guns they own have been tested by me and my loads. I weigh every charge for rifles and load my pistol rounds on my Rockchucker, one by one. All my loads are mild and carefully put together. Not one issue in 30 years, knock on wood. Thousands of rounds per year. I never ask for any reimbursement . I'm just promoting the sport amongst my friends.

To each his own, but some of you take this too far. I agree with rifle loads for one gun, not shot in another, but pistol ammo?

ESPECIALLY pistol ammo.

NEVER EVER !! USE SOMEONE ELSES RELOADS..!!!!!!
UNLESS YOU SAT THERE AND WATCHED HIM OR HER DO IT....

... Never use someone else's handloads in YOUR GUNS ;D

I've never seen a double charge'd .45ACP go off, I hear it's spectacular. The slide goes flying off and little bits and bobs go everywhere.

My only .45ACP is a les Baer, don't think i'll be using anyone else's rounds any time soon.

Like this one I witnessed last month... "My buddies reload" he said...

Only from people I know that are reliable.

The OP said UNKNOWN.

Unknown because i wasnt there. I know who and what equipment but there just isnt any faith there. The who is a friend that used to shoot 45 race guns. They are loaded with 5.5gr of No2 so I think a double is possible. As of now one must think of the lot as components only. Vacuum sealing is a good idea from this guy though. I may seal my excess primers like that.
