'Nuther Reloading Clinic........Whaddya Think???
« on: April 09, 2013, 10:59:45 PM »
unfy............

is poking me to hold another reloading clinic.

Say.......Around Monday evening, April 29 or thereabouts.

My thoughts go sorta like this:  "With all that low cost ammo on the shelves at Scheels, Cabelas, Guns Unlimited, etc., etc., hardly nobody wants to bother with reloading any more."


So---Whaddya think?

Maybe a .40S&W class???   (FWIW:   Would be held at Paragon Firearms Training new location on N. 72nd Street in Omaha.]

Membership comments are invited.

Pick another date and I may be able to attend.  Looking to start reloading 9mm when my desired components are back in stock.

Given the lack of interest, we've decided to put off another class for a while.

We're somewhat flexible in the caliber we'll offer for reload and maybe a bit on the dates... but ya gotta realize that it's 3-4 hours of hands on instruction that covers start to finish to get students on their way to reloading (and being up for Q&A after the fact)... and the pittance we charge for the class means we're basically doing it as a community service (neither of us has seen a penny of the fees for the classes yet, it's been going to pay off the equipment used soley for the class and to buy the consumables for the class).

That said... when interest picks up again, we'll offer classes again.

If you have a pistol reloading class, count me in.

Damn pistol ammo has gotten too expensive.

Wallace11Bravo:

We've tested the waters, but with not much response yet.

Between summer being here [sorta] and the lack of reloading materials anywhere, the interest level has been pretty weak.

We might wait until fall or so.

However, let's see if these posts prompt any interest.
