Default My Reloads go BOOM!!!

OK all you guys with the jokes about me being Squbs Mcnubbits, I am vindicated.

Just test fired my reloads for 9mm and 44 mag.

Guess what? The Pino' learned to reload!!!! All went boom and had zero issues.

The 9's were accurate and couldn't tell the difference between my reloads and factory ammo.

I did run my 44's a little hot, according to master guru Dave, but never the less, they went down range and may I say, with a quickness!!! Palm was a little sore, but man is it fun shooting a 44 Mag!!!

The best part of today's range session was all the extra brass I came home with. I went to the range an hour before they closed and was allowed to stay after to pick all the brass I wanted!!! WOO HOO. I got buko brass for myself and for my neighbors.

Oh and my buddy at the range let me in for free since it was the end of the day! What a great day!

Congrats .........I would cut down on those hot loads especially just for range use, no need to waste powder, beat up your gun not to mention your hand!!!!

NO PICTURES? Didn't happen. Please post a YouSquib video to prove you have learned the craft!! LOL... congratulations! But I'll agree with John, watch the hot loads. Shooting isn't supposed to hurt your hand

Nice, Ell! Congrats!

Better to start at or below the "standard" load and work up to hot loads.
