I wanted one for about twenty years . Got the first one not quite two years ago and they multiplied . I “want” a 410 but if I don’t run up on a smoking deal I doubt that ever happens . I’m in the midst of an upgraded K-80 deal at the moment I’ll just content myself with that . Oh btw if you wanna try it anywhere they do an 8 gauge thing just let me know and we’ll make it happen !

We did at Hausemanns last year . But I’d rather do a different thing than what’s it called Mad Catfish

Incidentally I shot 1 3/4 ounce at Hausemanns and The Rock . Think this year I’ll back up regroup and go back to the 1 1/2 ounce load . I’d run out of Clays for 1 1/2 so changed to 1 3/4 with Universal Clays . Supposedly someone bringing me four pounds of Clays so I gotta be set for atleast three years shooting .

I’m quite intrested to see what the one at Rock Island brings . With probable 40” barrels that one intrests me . Not sure why it intrests me but it does . Anyway if this one today brought $5800 or so plus 10% the Rock Island one of it letters with Damascus barrels oughtta bring a good bit more I would think .

One day it’ll happen. Those big 8s are fun. Maybe next Vegas trip?

I ordered 100 of the unprimed REM hulls from this guy over a year ago . His price is high but they got to me quick . At the time I was worried about Armbrust’s order with WIN panning out , I think that hundred is still in a box unused . I’ve in the mean time picked up more here there and yonder .

Hes got 500 of the primed ones left, he did have hundreds of the unprimed Remingtons and Winchester but someone about cleared them out recently. There were 1200 all together about 2 weeks or so back. I think he must have a connection, I asked him about some other industrial hulls that he told me had been discontinued I couldnt find information on anywhere else. I asked if he had a source for any wads he said no only hulls.
