A little reloading help!!

Big Al1

We watch our 4 1/2 year old GGS several days a week and he's always been curious about my reloading press so today he got his first lesson. He got to resize some .45 Colts for me, and helped me prime a few. Then he got bored and went back to bike and scooter riding!!

My 4 year old hangs around the cave, and keeps saying he’s got to learn what daddy does.  I agree.

My grandkids love to help me reload!  They like seating bullets, youngest is too small to size them,

Get'em started young and you'll be passing on a lifelong hobby he'll enjoy. He'll also, very likely, remember these years fondly. 👍

When I was young watching my Dad casting bullets and reloading I'm like Boooooring. Fast forward a couple of decades and and Dad is gone but I want to learn how to reload. Some lessons are learned the hard way.

Interest at that age is a good thing.  Even a short stint around the bench is great news for the future.

Great job Grandpa! Get them hooked early!

Nice!
I didn’t start my boy loading until about 14. When I could have his attention for longer than a few minutes. Started him shooting at 4, so he got that bug. When I got him into loading, had bought him a complete AR, striped lower and all parts in boxes and bags. He built it up with me looking over his shoulder, then loaded 20 rounds; size, prime, charge, seat, crimp. Having seen how the gun goes together and how the ammo works, he had an eye opening experience. A bit different than shooting Dad’s guns and ammo. He’s 20 now and the monster I created, but still a work in progress. Texts me regularly about guns he’s working on and asking advice. 😎
