Supplies

[CraigThompson]

Ordered a case of Claybuster knockoffs of the WAA12 wad and they appeared today . Tuesday I’d mentioned I wanted to buy some once fired 20’s AA and or STS and a friend strolled in with a little over a thousand .

Love those old Compression formed 20 hulls.
I have a good supply on hand.

I’ve got 3500+ already loaded both AA , AA-HS and STS . The 1000+ in that box when I’m done will put me close to 5,000 .

I started loading up STS 20 3/4 ounce low PSI. Stocked up on the 3/4 CB WAAS for 12 and 20. I don't know why CB doesn't make a light wad for 16 ga?

They make two knockoffs of the WAA16 ones supposedly an ounce and the other is the same outside design but pink with a dimple inside that they call a 7/8 ounce wad .

I keep CB AA 12 wads for 1 1/8 , 1 , 7/8 and 3/4 but at the moment I’m liking the regular old knockoff of the WAA12 wad loaded I believe somewhere between 2 and 3 thousand the last two weeks . I get finished up on the 10’s early next week I think I’ll try and load the couple hundred 12’s I recently shot then move on to the 20’s . While I don’t “need” all the stuff loaded , while I feel like doing it I figured I oughtta try and knock out as much as I can . Before I head to Georgetown I wanna load about 500-1000 410’s and of course shoot a couple hundred on Tuesday’s before going down there . When I was at Rock Mountain I shot a friends IJ Skeeter 410 as I’d not brought my IJ Hercules 410 . And it seems to me that was the first time I’d shot a 410 in over a year maybe closer to two years .

CB 16’s , if you look close in the last pic you can seem the displacement dimple in the bottom of the pink wad .

I hope we see the DR-16 wad sometime in the near future. Fits great in RST 2/12” 16 hulls.

I asked about 16 ga wads at the local club last week. To my delight, the owner pulled out a bag of dr 16s. I was down to a third of a bag of them at home. :whistle:

[Dale Medders]

Yes I have been calling Downrange
every couple months and still nothing firm when the will start making them.
I really like that wad.

[CraigThompson]

I’ve got about a case of both sizes of the CB 16’s and over a case of SP-16’s . I’m pretty sure I have more 16 gauge wads than I’ll ever need .

[CraigThompson]

Back last fall I bought a bunch of 16 gauge stuff off a guy . Close to 7,000 AA style red 16 gauge hulls , close to 10,000 SP-16 wads , bunch of 209’s , a MEC 650 16 and five pounds of SR4756 . This guy had a light 1 ounce 16 load using the components mentioned . I scoffed at it and was going to sell the 650 but thought before doing that I’d try the press and his load to see how the shells looked . To make a long story short I loaded enough on that press to use up all the 4756 that came with it in addition to another three or so pounds I had . Now I’m in the process of figuring out a load using the same Hull same wad ounce of shot and Red Dot as I have about 18 pounds of Red Dot to burn up and plenty wads .
