I know a guy that does custome reloading. His name is Bob out of sedro woolley wa. He takes your gun and developes custom loads for it and does most things to make it shoot better. He charges about 3-5 buck a round makes 150 of them and some $$$ to get your gun dialed in. He has an FFL and does gunsmithing. he dis a trigger job on my 06 and we experimented with making some accelerator rounds to work in my gun... Cool Guy, reasonable and very experienced. PM me for his number.
In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

I am impressed by the answers given to this question.  My dad does almost all of the family reloading because he has the time (retired).  He will help a friend by showing them the ropes using his dies, press, etc. if they buy the components but wouldn't charge someone anything.  When we go to the range folks shoot his reloads often enough without much worry about liability as he isn't loading the ammo FOR someone else they just happen to be borrowing his ammo.  I would let the guy bring a 6 pack and buy a pizza and walk him through the process as he loaded his own ammo.  He'll learn more that way anyhow.

I saw this question asked on another forum and the concensus was that if you are being paid, you are considered a manufacturer and that falls under FFL-type laws and regs.  But I don't think pizza and beer are specifically covered by BATFE rules  :tup:  Get together with him and have fun
