Actually, one other thing to add, may that two things. First, I am very definitely a novice when it comes to loading bottleneck smokeless cartridges. I have very little experience with any smokeless loading. I'm a bpcr guy, and that I do know a little about.

Second, I thought I would post this picture just to implore people to buy and USE good glasses. I took this quite a few hours after the event while I was becoming bored in the hospital. You can still see a faint red flush on my skin from the blast and the peppering that is everywhere on my face- except behind where my glasses were. They were first rate Randolph Ranger Edge glasses. I ordered replacement lenses today for them. Expensive - hardly! Several hundred dollars were the cheapest insurance and protection one could ask for. Don't buy cheap stuff and don't trust your everyday glasses get good, purpose built, shooting glasses.
