A friend picked me up a 100 pack of 20's at Wally World this week $25 . These were Winchesters on the cheap Universal hull , they have two things going for them 1 they go bang and 2 I can pitch the hulls

Craig, I have not had any reloading problems either between the Win and Cheddite primers. Got 5000 cheddite and 5000 Win, will use the cheddite up first. I am not able to shoot weekly like many of you so should last me a good while. I picked up 4 100 packs of those Win Universal 20 ga last night at Wally world--glad the wife made me stop now.

I've got a good friend who's buisness is in the next county over and they have a Wally World so each morning he stops by to see if they have shells and if they do he gets his allotted three 100 round boxes . He sent me a text the other day that he had gotten me a 100 of the WIN 20 7 1/2's . I'd been happier if he'd said he had a few more but ya gotta start somewhere .

I loaded 500 20's with 8's over the weekend . See if I can't knock out 500 or so with 7 1/2's monday . Hopefully by the end of the week I'll have the 16's takem care of as well . Then monday and tuesday before heading to PA I'll try and load a 100 8 gauge 7 1/2's .

As to the primer thing after not seeing anything detrimental with the Cheddites I told the guy at the shop that watches out for reloading components for himself and I to keep an eye out for WIN and or Cheddite 209's . If memory serves I picked up 1000 Federal 209A's from someone in the last year or so . I may dig them out and use them up this week .
