Sad Day Reloading

[George "Scott" Davis]

Jeff,

I lived in Metro Phoenix for years with all the retired Shooters and over the years made many great acquaintances at Ben Avery, Rio Salado and Tucson Trap and Skeet and as they aged and stop shooting purchased a LOT of reloading supplies. I'll bet 90 % of my primers, shot, powder and wads were bought through these connections. Some stuff I'll never utilize but still have 12 pound kegs of 7625, several 12 pounders of Clays and Universal Clays, 16 pounds of 700X and over 20,000 primers.
It's been my experience the guns and reloading presses sold quickly but multiple times reloading supplies ended up in estate/garage sales or I'd get call from the widow/children about purchasing the supplies. I believe as we move forward in the anti-gun/shooting world our reloading supplies will be a continued struggle to source.

You might as well check your powder inventory and go on a reloading site and find loads that match your powder supply. If you think you can find Clays, International Clays or Universal Clays you are going to be very disappointed. It will be a long time until they become available again unless you stumble across some in a auction or garage sale, etc.

Why are you only loading 2 1/2" hulls? Should be able to use 2 3/4" in your guns.
