Yep loose actions and other things

Another goober. Guy comes in and says he needs some more red dot. OK...the guy loads a fair amount of trap loads and he actually has a scale. Don't know if he ever used it..but I sold him one so I know.. Get the powder out and it is in a 4 lb can. He says ...Hey they used to make that in 5 lb cans....so I guess the price went up etc etc. I said no they only made it in 4 lbs. He says the last time he bought some for his goose loads it was in 5 lbs. I say..is this for goose loads? He says yep. I say not Red Dot. Blue Dot maybe but not Red Dot. Got really indignant! Fired right up...kinda like our fav gal Lilred! He says. I don't know what I am talkin about ..just sell him the Red Dot. I refused. Told him to get his powder elsewhere. Cussed me till a fly wouldn't light on me. Told him to leave. Goes thank goodness!! Calls me back the next day all apologetic. Asks if I have any Blue Dot. Figured I really didn't need his business so I said no. Never sold the guy another item for reloading again. He was the kind that woulda blown a gun up and "blamed" me. Bout 40 grains of Red Dot under 1 7/8 oz of shot woulda done it too.
