I was at my Gun Smiths shop today dropping off a .45 to have some work done and during my visit I started talking to the partner about reloading.
I asked if he would be holding some classes on reloading and to my surprise he said he is actually putting together a class for possibly the end of March.
He said he did not know if there would be enough interest to put together a class but he was thinking he was going to put some ads in the Vacaville reporter and the Dixon paper and a few other places to see how much interest there would be.
A rough guess for the class will be about $30-40. The materials, books and what not usually run him about $20. The cost of using the Dixon game club facilities, some simple refreshments would basically be covered by the rest. Lunch would be fend for your self to keep cost down.
He said he was looking to keep the class to about 20 people or so. The morning would cover the basics of Shotgun shell reloading. A break for lunch and then on to the basics of metallic cartridge, starting with basic pistol.
The thought is to keep it basic, side conversations during lunch or after if you want to discuss specifics. Who know if it works out maybe we can talk him into doing an advanced class later.
I told him I would post up the rough plan we talked about here to reach out to the Internet side and get back with him next weekend on reaction to the class.
Basically an intro basic reloading class for Shotgun and Center fire cartridges, held in Dixon,Ca. He is a NRA certified Trainer, cost running somewhere in the $30-40 range. To be held sometime the end of March, the first part of April. I am sure once he has an idea of whats what he can start to solidify the plans.
Anyone interested?
