SAFETY

Reloading is an enjoyable and rewarding hobby that is easily con-

ducted with safety. But carelessness or negligence can make reloading
hazardous. This product has been designed from the beginning with
the user’s safety in mind.

As with any reloading operation, some safety rules must be fol-

lowed. By observing these few rules, the chance of hazardous occur-
rence causing damage or injury becomes extremely remote.

GENERAL

• Use the reloading equipment as the manufacturer recommends.

Study the instructions carefully and become thoroughly familiar
with the operation of the product. Don’t take short cuts.

• Observe “good housekeeping” in the reloading area. Keep tools

and components neat, clean and orderly. Promptly and
completely clean up primer and powder spills.

• Reload only when you can give your undivided attention. Do not

reload when fatigued or ill. Develop a reloading routine to avoid
mistakes. Avoid haste—load at a leisurely pace.

• Always wear adequate eye protection. You assume unnecessary

risk when reloading without wearing safety glasses.

LOADING DATA

• Use only laboratory tested reloading data. We highly recommend

the use of the SPEER Reloading Manual.

• OBSERVE ALL WARNINGS ABOUT THE USE OF MAXIMUM

LISTED LOADS.

PRIMERS AND POWDER

• WARNING: Primers are designed to explode and will do so when

subjected to heat or percussion.

• DO NOT decap live primers.
