Wayne, What a great way to shoot doves on opening day! I have the brass Track of the Wolf shells in 10 and 12 gauge and really like them. Are you using hand tools or a loading press to load them? Also with the smokeless powder are you using a plastic wad?

I have only used black powder so far for the brass shells with felt wads. I would like to to try that Red Dot recipe in my 10 gauge lifters.

Thanks for sharing,

Jay

Hi Jay,
I am using original Parker Bros loading tools. It is time-consuming even with the 20 shells I have. The wads being used are the Track of the Wolf brand .125" over-powder cards, the .500" fiber-cushion wads, and the .025"thin white over-shot cards. I load them exactly as the Track of the Wolf hand loading manual states including lubricating the fiber-cushion wads and sealing the over-shot card with Duco cement.
Hope this helps,
Wayne
