    Teach me about reloading..

    Ya know that's funny I already told the wife that I planned on drying my brass in her oven; she told me that I could do that all that I wanted so long as she got a new oven and I could put the slide in oven downstairs in the Reloading room in the basement, sounds like a win-win to me!
