I was going to try reloading a 10 gauge 2 7/8 ,1 1/8 oz load using corn cob media,and thought would use a nitro card over powder and a mylar wrap around shot.Researching corn cob media,(blasting media), I see they have several different sizes,then wondered if pressure would be different with fine media verses coarse,then I thought I remembered reading somewhere about a paper or thin cardboard shot cup.Then I came across these new shells from Federal that have some interesting components.Luckily I've been busy getting ready to plant my crops and put all this on the back burner for a while.The media wad may work better in a brass case?Has anyone tried or come across the new Top Guns with cardboard wads? Jeff.

They can't ship from UK to USA unless you have a friend over there ship them. Even then you'll jump through hoops. One of our esteemed members did us a solid and pulled off the miracle and had 8g components shipped here. He found the proverbial needle in the haystack.
