    How much is too much?

    Just having a bit of a clean up in the shed and I recon there is probably a pound of powder on the floor under the 1980s freezer!
    Well and truly time for a tidy up!



    Any of you guys worse?.....come on make me feel better.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Na. Haven't had a powder spill that I can remember but I tend to find primers, tumbling media and projectiles and other essential reloading stuff where it shouldn't be.

    How have you kept your dogs and offspring away from the reloading area?
