Reloading for friends!

[skeet]

having reloaded commercially for a while back yonder..I can say unequivocally it ain't worth doing. I did shotshells mostly and found out a lot of stuff about liability. My insurance was terribly expensive and found out that homeowners insurance was useless for almost anything firearm related...much less anything commercial gun related. Even if the insurance company will cover anything you may be doing for a friend..they want to settle quickly. Leaving you kinda holding the bag...even through no fault of yours. And even when they do settle, any agreement they might make covers them ...not you most of the time. I once had an insurance company(agent, really) that wanted to cancel my homeowners just because I had reloading equipment/supplies. Tried to say powder etc was an explosive. Ok to have gasoline acetylene etc in the garage but powder?? Nah. Didn't happen though once I dealt with the company itself. Insurance companies are not always your friends as depicted on the good hands commercials. LOL I moved all the powder I had to a powder magazine behind the barn. But there were times I had quite a bit of powder. Had a small building out there with 5 old reefers or freezers. You can store up to 100 lbs in one

i have my own reloading staion but my freind reloads for my 32 rem only because he has 30 plus years knowledge and the dies and books with the factory loads and gun model pressure specs and so on sum of which i do not so he does it for cost all i supply is the cases but pay him for noses and powder and primers. i have reloaded for others for money and for free depends on the person but never put my name on anything and never worked up a load for them that strayed to far from factory only once i strayed and thats because i owned the gun before my freind and it was a ruger number 1 and i had shot the same loads for years which where hot and he didnt like the kick of that 45-70 with a hot load so that was all for that

here in "the golden state", it's against the law, IIRC, as most have said here, CHECK WITH THE STATE, COUNTY AND LOCAL ORDINANCES before undertaking reloading for anyone other than yourself.

i have and do load for freinds, i work the loads up in theyre rifles and run finished loads under book loads with bullets seated further in the case so they dont have problems cycling from the mag.

two are good freinds the other is my father who could care less but i i make sure and have him a fresh box of 20 shells at the begining of each deer/elk season for his 3006
