Good Advice
Jim, William gave you a really good and important piece of advice when he wrote "Always a good idea to look through the barrels before loading a fresh shell". I cannot emphasize how important that step is, particularly if you are shooting reloads using hulls of the older paper base wad design. Even though the target may be broken and the recoil and sound may be normal on a shot, the base wad may occasionally separate and be left in the bore. It can then form an obstruction on the next shot through that tube.
Thanks William. HTH Fred.
