I load 10ga 2 7/8" 1 1/8oz, 5000psi for targets and 1 1/4oz bismuth #5's for ducks. I just switched from Federal to the Remington hulls from Precision Reloading and I like the way they load very much. I load 7625 and the sp-10 wad. (I have 16lbs of 7625 in inventory!)
I load 12ga 1oz 7400psi for targets and 1 1/8 oz bismuth #5's for ducks. I use the Remington Gun Cub hull, TGT wad and Clay Dot powder in the target loads. I also load 45-90 rifle for my Creedmore 1885 Winchester I have been reloading since 1972----42 years I met Morris at the Vegas show and said they are going back to the Federal hull from Cheddite for their 10ga offerings. Apparently Federal hulls in 10ga are available again and are less costly than Cheddite. |

I have Mec 600 jr's in 12 , 16, and 20. Loading shells is kind of relaxing( yeah, and sometimes frustrating). It allows me to have more "quality time" with my 3 setters who stay in the garage. They jockey for posistion to see who can be the closest to me, so there are lots of breaks for ear scratchin' and ball throwin'. Also have a Bose MiniLink sound system that links to smart phones and produces a tremendous sound while reloading.

Currently am loading 12 and 20 but have loaded 10 and 16 in the past. Started loading shotshells in 1962 on a Lee hand, and I mean hand, loader. It took quite a while to pound out a box of shells. No plastic wads available then and paper hulls with cardboard and fiber wads. Hulls were hard to come by in those days so I used to shoot them till I saw the first pin hole just above the brass head. Then, reluctantly, to the trash they went.

Edger: 450-400 NE? Do you hunt dangerous game or just gluten for punishment as mama used to say?
