I don't have the stash of loaded shells that I used to have. However, all of the loaders are set up and working. To be honest, at 76 my components will probably outlive me. As ammo supplies wind down, I will probably switch from skeet and sporting clays to box birds and tower pheasant shoots. More expensive, but less taxing on the ammo supply. Everyone should have a "plan".

Thirty years ago when was into skeet/trap hard and heavy I wanted to get to the pigeon ring but finding an avenue wasn’t easy . And those that did kept telling me I’d be broke in two years as they figured I’d shoot every weekend and play all the purses . In hindsight after a slight introduction to Colombaire and box birds this past year they were most likely correct . But even in the shall we say twilight years I could still see myself shooting pigeon rings every chance I’d get just maybe not playing all the money . I’m not sure why I really like the pigeon ring , but I don’t care for pigeons at a tower shoot , go figure
