My Confession - Part 2

I stepped outside for a few moments and took the garbage out.
Picked a few peaches and rounded up the pew pooh patch.
I must admit, I came in skratch'in.
Peach fuzz got me.

For the record... Primers picked up by a Kirby vacuum cleaner will detonate...

A Kirby popping primers makes sense since everything goes through the fan before it enters the bag. At least both Kirbys my parents had growing up worked that way. Sucked up an empty balloon in my teen years and it started to burn and smelled like heck as it got jammed in the blades.

I have an old Filter Queen that works like a Shop Vac. Was vacuuming up some dead primers that missed the garbage can and when I emptied the vacuum I found a couple live ones in there still in mint condition. I later loaded and fired them; no issues.

What the he!! is wrong with you people!!?? Vacuuming powder and primers, depriming primers without first de-activation them, tumbling live rounds??? Drinking while reloading??? Are you people crazy???!!! There are WARNINGS!!!! Your d!cks will all fall off, the primers will explode setting off a chain reaction and your neighbour's powder magazine will go up next!! C'mon people, warnings save lives!!!









That being said, Except for the drinking during reloading (I don't drink) I am guilty of all the above, including some reloading steps while watching movies and chambering rounds I pick up off the ground with light or no primer strikes. Yes, I have worked up loads for rounds with no data, including 220 gn subsonic and 174gn (hunting) bullets in an SKS.

All appendages intact, including my d!ck. Well, most of it...I was circumcised as an infant...

I guess some people just like living on the Edge. I am sure everyone who has reloaded for awhile has done all of the above and maybe even worse.

everything you do from walking the dog to parachuting is all about risk management, even breathing and eating. some dice aren't worth rolling, others cost the odd poor bastard the world. c'est la mort.

What? LOL

Usually I would be a defender of free speech but i have to admit I think it is great that the moderators have been enforcing behaviour guidelines more often. This site has become a better place over the last several months because of it. Keep up the good work.
