Shells for the SxS events?

[Randy Roberts]

I am well stocked for the time being with both factory and reloads. Having said that I hope that Morris will be making delivery as usual to some of the events as I would like to stock pile a few more 2.5" 20'sand 16's,.
Now would be a good time for me to fire up the MEC again if I really needed to. The weather girl was calling for 1 to 3" of snow overnight last evening. We had 8" at the house and some are reporting 11"

I've got plenty of hunting shells and enough target loads to get through spring trap league an maybe a bit more. After that...?

As written in the opening post I'm ok for a while. In the past I've only loaded for 10 and 12-gauge but decided last month to get into 16 and 20. Also my 12 ga MEC 9000 progressive is getting tired. I’ve got presses now on order to include a 12/20 Ponsness 800 that’s quoted to ship in 2-3 months, and a 16 MEC Sizemaster and short kit that’s 2 weeks out. Both ordered directly from the respective factories. Have plenty of components right now with 209 primers being the limiter and I'll pay whatever I have to when they get to a low trigger point. I like shooting too much to be otherwise sitting around next year wondering why I didn't spend a few bucks extra for this or that.

Between factory loaded stuff , my handloads and the components I have on hand I should be good for perhaps five years

I’ve stock piled enough factory loads to get my 5000 registered trap targets for this target year and put a dent into next year. And enough reloads to keep up practice for several months. But I’m worried about shells for events like the Southern. Don’t do many of those and really don’t have the extra shells to spare, particularly when you consider how poorly I shoot Sporting Clays.

Tom, I always shoot 8’s in singles and doubles and 7.5’s in handicap. ALWAYS.

I do too John. My problem is that I can no longer get 7 1/2s and 8's. I don't want to use 8 1/2's for Trap but I might have to.

Desperate times call for desperate measures.

I'm in good shape for 2 years at my current rate of usage of 3000 per year for target loads. Duck loads are good for the rest of my life and my son's. LOL
My first shortage will be primers.
I load 8ga,10ga,12ga 3/4oz, 12ga 1 1/8oz for my model11, 20ga 3/4oz.
A friend just bought 500 boxes of BP target loads for $7.75 per box. Rochester Brooks has been selling BP's for $7.75 to members on a two flats per week allowance.
Even if I have to pay outrageous prices for components I won't stop shooting.

My club finally received primers so I grabbed 4000. For powder I have an 8lb. jug of clay dot and half of another. Just had a case of wads delivered so that totals 6000. I make my own shot. I just ran 40lbs. this past Sunday nd have about 200lbs. of ingots and 150lbs, of wheel weights to use so I set for a while. Planning on Rock Mountain in August.
