What do you hate the most?

[jpjulian]

What was a beautiful woman that mutilated her body with hideous tattoos and piercings all over what was once a glorious thing of beauty. That is what I hate most.
Cleaning, uniforming, deburrinng flash holes. I haven't done anything to a flash hole in maybe 25 years other than knock out an old primer and press in a new one.

FL sizing, because I clean them before hand (and usually anneal) then clean after sizing to get all the lube off -- followed by trimming and deburring necks inside and out. Makes quantity loading a chore, makes me wish all my rifles had a 40 degree shoulder. Had a friend years ago who loaded new brass, neck sized it once and then threw it away. Wish I could afford to do that, but loading min. of 3000 rds. a year -- not very practical.

Me too!

I am surprised at the number of guys who are turned off by tattoos. I thought it was just me.

Thirty years ago my wife and I would leave town, counting tattoos as we left for vacation. We lived in a poverty town where the tooth to tattoo inverse equation was spot on...

We would then travel for a week, counting tattoos. Except for our one visit to the beach near the sub bases in CT (navy), we always saw more tattoos in and out of our town than we saw in the entire week away.

Now, it seems like the barrista (I laughed) has more than we counted in a week. I still think they are butt ugly.

That said, I hate pink/green/red/purple hair too. And trimming cases.

I don't have a single tattoo, but my wife has prolly a couple square feet of em. She's one of those artsy types, and I guess she doesn't much care what anyone thinks about her ink. I guess that's kind of the point. I'm not about to start hating them, or her for getting them. I would be much more concerned if she had doubled or tripled her weight since we got married.

We've both had very ummm "interesting" past lives before we met each other, and the 25 years that we've been together have been blessedly calm, even normal. Instead of finding things to hate, I've got great reason to be thankful -- amazingly so.

Having crappy Hornady brass with large weight variances kind of sucks, and of course there's the nazi thing ...

I enjoy all the tedious concentration taking steps of reloading except
--Deburring the brass, inside and out

 

[NF1E]

I have enjoyed everything about loading for 60 years. Even more in the last couple of decades since I started listening to other's suggestions and picking up proper toys to make things more technically correct and a heck of a lot more fun. Whatta Hobby!

Yea, it sure is easy to hate that Blue, Pink, Purple, Green hair too!!
But it does serve to be an early warning sign of the Libtard lurking underneath it. LOL

Dropping a piece of brass while sizing. It seems inevitable they land so that the neck is deformed, and the sizer has already been put away.

Those handful of .380 shells that always end up in my 9mm bucket. I have never even owned a 380

 

[AlNyhus]

I'd rather put some part of my anatomy in a vise and tighten it, than trim case necks to length.

That’s what my Dummy rounds in my die box get used for the most.

Its not just you...

My daughter, who is a super liberal School Teacher, has several tattoos. She ask me why I never got one.

The only answer I could come up with at that moment was through all of my years and the things I had done and the places I had been, I had never been drunk enough, stoned enough, or dumb enough to get one.

Small pieces of egg shells in my scrambled eggs. There is nothing I hate about reloading, I find it very enjoyable. I do wish my chargemaster was immune to static electricity.

Small pieces of egg shell in my powder. Not sure how

Wipe it down w/drier sheets

I hate that getting older makes reloading harder. Reading glasses, needed to double check load data/notes. Bullets have gotten smaller or fingers don't work like they used to. And component prices go up much more than most other necessities (yes ammo is a necessity).

 

[Sam3460]

I HATE trimming brass. Not sure why, but I just do. So glad that I have the PMA brass trimmer to make it easier.

What do you hate the most?

View attachment 1691961How much powder, primers have increased and how often nothing is available.

 

[dryhumor]

Just to update on my earlier post…

I looked all over for that bucket of self discipline today. I only only found a handful. Just enough to prep the 20 cases I shot over the past two days. Fortunately, they didn’t need trimming.
