I load dangerously over-pressure ammo quite regularly, in numerous chamberings, for numerous guns.

I guess Im far to afraid to get risky with reloading.
One reason I decided to not buy a scale is that means I CANT start pushing the limits because I can weigh the powder more accurately.
I dont want to go down that path because frankly I love my eyes and hands being intact
The two loads I have could likely be double charged and my Ruger might have a good chance of not blowing up in my face.
Id just prefer, personally, to have the easiest, simplest, least likely to fail set up possible.
When Im working on my car, or working with my woodworking tools I always get a routine going and I stick to it so that safety can be a part of that routine.
I didnt get into reloading to get risky, but simply did for cheap range ammo. I only need one recipe for that and the Lee dipper that came with the Lee 38 die set is perfect for that (.5cc) with Unique powder.
I dont see any reason to toy around with it either heavier or lighter because its absolutely perfect where it is.
I did decide to use the .7cc dipper with the 125 grain Hornady bullets because of the wife and wanting a little more power than the commercial ammo I tried, but not as obnoxious as the 357 magnums for her sake.
The two recipes are great for me/us and the cost per box of ammo has already paid for most of the stuff I bought to reload.
I respect most of the folks here, you all have been very helpful with information, but I just dont see myself getting into 'tinkering' with reloading or getting anywhere near max loads and especially anything even remotely near dangerous.
