Internet quest for accuracy comparison between Hornad and Nosler led me here.  Group sound pretty straight up and I like that.Been reloading since 1972 - started out loading .45 ACP with a Lee pocket loader - that was scary!

Load rifle, pistol, shotgun.  Shoot IDPA, Two Gun and Three gun.  SO, RSO, NRA instructor Rifle, Pistol, Shotgun, Home Firearm Safety, PPITH and PPOTH. 

I have been shooting since the early 1950, know what I like and what I don't like.  Married to a woman who, God love her, puts up with me and I will be forever grateful for that.  Have three sons and a daughter - she is the youngest and outshoots most men - mean as a rattlesnake.  I love them all unconditionally.

Scoutmaster for longer than a sane person should be and still involved on the district level.  #3 son is Eagle - two palms

From time to time I might stop by, most likely infrequently

"Nough about me - load and make ready!

Singer, many welcomes. My totem is an owl from 1976 Woodbadge. Went on to get my third bead, played with OA, committee level, but my first love has always been at the local troop level. Nothing like seeing boys become young men and knowing you had a part of moulding them. Even helped with Cubs and Explorers just a bit. They will work you to death if not careful.
 Glad you are here and hope you enjoy. Don't know those pocket loaders. I have an ancient 38 loader that works great still. My Florida bud has even set up a loader in his bug out bag. Later my three fingered friend, wc

LOL, was a Barn hardt Owl from Camp Barnhardt. We wanted to get an Eagle patrol but just did not have enough. Would have been nice in '76 to have been an Eagle. wc

Purcellvile is up in the Northwest where VA, MD and WV come together.  Harpers Ferry is one ridge over and about 15-20 minutes away.

I drove up to a family reunion this summer in Beaver Creek OH and it took 8 hours.  That is a day trip for sure!
