"Verrry Interrresting" on the loose wads.... If you'd be so kind, what type of load do you use with this case, and about hot many reloads do you get before a wad is likely to come loose? I assume you are firing these cartridges in a Parker double, and not a semi-auto or pump. I use Federal plastic cases myself and have not noticed this problem. Best, Kensal |

The wad is never "likely" to come loose. It will come loose when you least expect it. It isn't something that happens often. Most hulls will never lose a base wad before being unloadable. Look down that barrel.

Jent, This is what I use on those bothersome Remington 10ga hulls with loose primers. After using it the first time on new hulls, primers still hold tight after several reloads. I use Win 209 primers. HTH, Robert.
Here is one place that sells them. http://www.ballisticproducts.com/Pri...tinfo/2301816/

I've never had the problem with primers in the Remington hull - but that said, I live a couple of miles from Williams - have to ask about the tool next time I stop in. Didn't know they made one and I'm in there about twice a month and learn about it here. Paul

Jent, Mark, et al:
While I am not denying that base wads from Federal 10-bore cases could come loose, I am a bit baffled as to how they could migrate halfway down the barrel. Please understand that I am NOT a physicist nor an explosives engineer, but these questions persist in my mind: 1) When gunpowder ignites it creates a gas pressure that is equal in all directions. This is physics. 2) As the wad column and shot move forward, it allows the building gas pressure to move this ejecta down the barrel and out the muzzle. 3) As the ejecta travels within the barrel, there is STILL gas pressure pushing backward against the base wad/cartridge head. When the shot and wads leave the muzzle, this pressure drops to zero. 4) In this whole process, I cannot think of any force induced by firing the cartridge that would allow the basewad to move FORWARD and down the barrel. In posing these thoughts, I'm just trying to understand why this phenomenon apparently happens. NOT that it doesn't happen. I know that Tom Armbrust posts here occasionally, so he may have an expert's explanation as to why this apparent redefinition of physics takes place. Or point out what force moves the base wad forward. Best. Kensal |

I am guessing that the wad and shot create a vacuum when exiting barrel. This would pull the base wad forward. Dave
