Billy,

It ain't just reading comprehension. It's just being a goober. Back when I was a distributor for Ponsness Warren...Had a fellow I knew wanted one. On my way to work so I stopped and set it up for him. Showed him how it worked. Loaded over a 100 shells in just a few minutes. Before I got home he had it messed up. Stopped at his place 4 times to "fix" it. Only had to readjust it. He kept messing with it whan it loaded perfect shells. He finally said to heck with it and asked if I sold Mec 9000G loaders . I said sure...but I don't work on Mec loaders. He traded me even up for the Mec. Said they were bullet proof. Well they mighta been bullet proof...but they sure weren't idjit proof. He had the Mec messed up before I left his house. And it loaded fine shells right after I set it up. I understand..shortly after that, he started to shoot factory shells. They were almost idjit proof!! To be real honest, I ain't sure they shoulda let him handle a gun!

And another thing. It's not quite in the same vein. All the years I sold reloaders and componennts to the shotshell(read trap) shooters in my area....No more than 2 outta 10 had a powder scale. That is why I had a BIG disclaimer sign in my shop about not being responsible for what any body reloaded.
