Episode 136: Smoke’n Bears

As requested, in this episode, I dive a little deeper into my own reloading practices and some of the advantages/disadvantages of how I do things. I also talk about some of the larger sample size testing I've been doing and some ways that load development is now radically simpler than it used to be for me.

In this episode, I collected a few short stories and words of wisdom from a local gathering of sheep hunters. I wish I could have spent an hour with everyone there, but on this episode, are bits from Jerry Lees, Marty Meierotto, Bob Cassell, Skip Scott, Tony and Kodi Hollis, and Tom Lamal. Enjoy!
