Bruce, could you share that 2 1/2" 20 load? I have used Unique before for that, was a little dirty.

I also requested a “Low Pressure” load for 7/8 oz shot. “Longshot” was the proper powder and it just happened to be in stock at my local Scheels. Enough supplies ordered for 200 rounds, enough to get acquainted with the old gun and break some clay.
FedEx says delivery on Thursday the 10th.

They're stepping up their game. I Got 4 bags of wads last Friday, and that took three weeks. They were in stock too.

Since your gun has fluid steel barrels, I wouldn't worry much about the pressure. Alot of loads listed for 2 3/4 will fit in a 2 1/2" hull. Can always drop to 3/4 oz. Remember pressure has NOTHING to do with recoil.

I would have gone to Precision too, if they had the wads I wanted.

Just sayin again ....I ordered some in-stock black powder reloading components from Track of the Wolf in MN on Monday and the package arrived today. No excuses, no shipping delay due to high volume, no other blah blah. Where there's a will there's a way.

I've been trying to figure out how it's possible for high sales volume to be an issue for shipping when they obviously have very little inventory to sell! How's that work? Would seem like filling fewer smaller orders would be quicker.
