Hi Bob, I roll my own B/W, but not colour. I actualy just had the unfortunate experiece of buying some new film cannisters recently and two of them scratched the film really badly, 3 big strips down the film. They must have had something in the felt from the factory where they were made. They were actualy metal ones this time and i usually use platic ones.
Also missing the last few frames really bugs me :) My local shop actualy has DX codes 100ISO cartrides. I've actualy got a 3 bulk loaders at the moment, two of which i'm going to put on ebay soon.
