Golf wouldn’t help your affliction Mark.
Your game would suffer badly because your mind would be on the next gun you “need”(want). .

You fellas made me peek at my gun log to check the activity thus far this year. It appears I may have early symptoms of a condition similar to that of which you speak. Not nearly as advanced as yours Mark but then again FedEx is scheduled to deliver Monday

Jay,
I thought that Ballard Brass made pinfire cartridges. They were purchased by Rocky Mountain Cartridges. I looked and didn't see any. However I did find they had 24 gauge pinfire cases in their inventory marked "no longer made." They would be the first person I would contact. https://www.rockymountaincartridge.com/products.htm I found a supply of them in England https://www.henrykrank.com/reloading...ire-cases.html Ross Seyfried wrote a great article about reloading pinfire cases decades ago in Guns and Ammo.

Thanks Harry,
I have been doing lots of research. I like this evolution in cartridge design, while short lived it was the latest and greatest in its day. And as I mentioned I have always just wanted one.I will post some pictures of the pinfire shotgun in another thread. It is a nice gun and I'll figure out the shells. While pricey, I ordered 2 of these to see if they will work and then I will likely order 18 more: http://www.hlebooks.com/pinfire/cal16-01.htm I contacted Rocky Mountain Cartridge and they don't make Pinfire shotshells any more. Though they are making some brass 12b shotshells for me. On the henrykrank website I didn't see and 12 gauge shells just 12mm , they do have a lot of neat stuff on there. I will check out that article you mentioned. I have run across a few people who were modifying modern primers and plastic shotshells and getting them to work well. |

Mark looks to me you took isolation to an extreme when you went to your cabin in Baffin. Trouble is you must still have WiFi and Internet service. That will get you in trouble every time. Nice scoring just knock out a wall and add more gun closets. Maybe this means a new kitchen but not in Baffin!!!!

Anxious to get both the 8 bore and the Skeet-er. Here are some sellers pics of the Skeet-er. Interesting that it was special ordered with Cyl in the right and Full in the left. Seems almost all i have ever seen are Sk in SK out.

The .410 Skeet-er with two sets of factory barrels were Skeet choked in one set and the other set must have been ordered as hunting chokes - full and skeet.
