    New shooter here

    I hail from Texas (I guess another ol' Redneck come to learn) Been a long time since I poured lead but still got all the fixins.
    My main purpose is to learn new ways to build better loads and relearn shooting my guns properly as I have damaged shoulders
    and need lighter ways to shoot them.
    Hodgdon has removed my ideal powders IMR SR4759. SR4756 or at leaste made them unavailable. So now you all know
    my story.

    Welcome dude. I love it that we are becoming a more international community.

    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

    Welcome 7mag, I have a feeling that suppressor may not be allowed in your country?
