I think that's a huge assumption.I assume others are similarly not children and therefore aren’t expecting to hold anyone but themselves responsible for *their* load decisions.
“No pressure signs”I'll see loads some people post and claimed velocities, some as much as 400 fps faster than mine w/ 1gr difference in powder, and wonder, "how the hell are you getting that?"
It might be, but treating people like children is a self fulfilling prophecy.I think that's a huge assumption.
I still marvel at the reloading manuals....the proofreading has to be phenomenal.
What MVs were you getting? How quickly did it destroy the frame or slide?11 gr Power Pistol 158 gr is the hottest load in a 9mm that brass survives
Sadly, we now live in a society where the coming generations and current adults are taught that it's OK to NOT take responsibility for their own actions. I'll assess a person's ability to take instruction, observe them for maturity level and then decide whether or not to help with reloading. Too many phone zombies and brain dead meat sacks now-a-days to blithely give advice on most anything. Treating them like children is actually elevating your estimation of some of them.I see no problem sharing load data because I own responsibility alone for what I load and I assume others are similarly not children and therefore aren’t expecting to hold anyone but themselves responsible for *their* load decisions.
I asked one person once, and his reply was, "you're doing something wrong." My data was within 100 FPS of predicted. Figured I just had a slow barrel, but not *that* slow.“No pressure signs”
my reply: “you don’t think 400fps higher is itself a pressure sign?” ![]()
The MV is unknown for that. I did chrono 380 158 gr at 1158 and 1187 fps with the same powder, but 8.5 gr instead of 11 gr.What MVs were you getting? How quickly did it destroy the frame or slide?
