Good advice in this post. Handloading is an all or nothing thing. If you don't have time to do it without being disturbed, create a sequence where you can stop and start and be absolutely certain where you are in the process.

Yep, that was one luck bear hunter. The bear was the least of his worries. He's lucky he didn't wrap that barrel around his head.

We had a guy rapid firing his 45 ACP at the range the other day. All of a sudden, his barrel exploded. Come to find out, he had skipped a case when filling with powder. The primer sent the bullet part way down the barrel, the next squeeze of the trigger sent another bullet down to meet it. The collision of the two wasimpressionable.

Absolutely! If he had been using lighter bullets, it is quite possible that one would have been blown into the bore.......
