8 Bore Ammo

Ed, I bought components from him. There is also an 8g FB page where components come up for sale occasionally. I bought a cubic ton of hulls, wads, OSC, shot sleeves, etc from a guy in AZ for $50!!

Leo, if you do somehow find someone to make some 8g shells for you, expect to pay around $5/shell. That’s about the going rate since it’s not commercially available and most guys hold components close to the vest.

If you guys know anyone going across the pond to England, they have Remington SP8 wads. They can bring them back or ship them back but a business over there cannot ship components.

Cubic ton?! That should last you awhile. Have had success with loading the “short” 8? Did you get your PW tooling from Bruce set up?

Components, recipes and loading presses are not an issue any more. Plenty of opportunities to shoot an 8 with like minded folks at one of the SxS shoots. What seems to be absent recently are 8ga Parkers for sale.

Should have the PW press soon. Dave had a few tweaks he had to make. I did get a bracket to stiffen up the MEC and a new decap/resize die for the MEC too. Bruce made them. That press works much better now.

Get Jr to retool a PW LS-1000 to 8 gauge ! That would be awesome having a progressive 8 gauge loader !

I kinda wish someone would purchase my last one so I get past this obsession

You supply the press and pay for the upgrade and he can do it.
