Disagree. Not using some one else's hand made ammo is no reflection on the reloader or egotistical thinking about one self. Reloading is easy, but also can be dangerous and taking a chance, even if the odds are waaay low, is plain old stupid. I know my equipment is working correctly. I know my references are good/safe. If I blow up a gun from my brain fade or lack of attention, I have no other to blame, so I take extra care. I know my friend reloads his handguns to max and has never had a Kaboom, but I'd just as soon not use his handloads, and he chooses to not use mine (I had a squib in 1970 and no Kabooms ever). Maybe if I watched the ammo being produced and I had no other alternatives, I might shoot someone's reloads. Ego and disrespect, questioning another's abilities, have nothing to do with not shooting handloads assembled by another...
