I never have been questioned by immediate family members. My dad started reloading in the 80's, and taught me how when I was in grade school. By the time I was in High School, I was working up my own loads for new rifles by myself. I do have a cousin, though, who won't shoot any of my reloads. I let him shoot some .44 mag loads that were a tidbit on the hot side. They must have hurt his delicate little hand, because he still refuses to shoot anything I load.
