I think having faith in your own loads might have something to do with your success.

I have ultimate faith in the flies I tie fir salmon, trout, bass, stripers, blues, etc. I just seem to have more success with them.

Dean is right, Stan. I attended two NSSA World Shoots in 1990 and 1992 at Savannah. Against everyone's advice, I shot my reloads in all events including the Champion of Champions event. I shot a 4 gun average of .9800 in both shoots, more than one bird higher than my 4 gun average at home. I won my .410 Championship at the Southern Side by Side with my 2 1/2" reloads against shooters who were probably shooting 3" shells. This is, as Dean suggests, "Faith in your reloaded shells".
