Default Remington 16 gauge

Gentlemen, I am in need of some 16 gauge Remington Game load hulls. These are the black shells that can be bought at the big box stores. I am willing to buy whatever you can spare,

I have a hand full left of a box of ribbed black plastic 16ga Remingtons with cardboard wads and no shot cups that I bought in 1965. I never throw anything away.... I'll put them in my will for you Dave...

Charlie, Nothing special really. I am set up for them and have a pile of wads,etc. I load them several way's and use them in all my 16 gauge gun's. A lot of guys like the cheddite hulls like Winchester,RST etc. and every once in a while I splurge and buy a flat of RST's. I think there is no better but reloading is still cheaper and I enjoy it.

Thanks to a couple of generous PGCA members I have a supply on the way. We really do have a bunch of great guy's here.....

I'm addicted to them because they make wonderful crimps, indistinguishable from new out of the box. I only bought a couple hundred from BP years ago, enough to last me out, so I have none to spare.

King, If you bought a couple hundred a few years ago you don't shoot enough...

It's true, I don't shoot as I did, clays a few times with the kids, but mostly for birds. A couple hundred new hulls in 12, 16 and 20 will see me out with a few flats of Kent TM. The limit on blacks is five, the geese toll well, but I bought some beautiful magnum drake whistler decoys for the divers mix next season so enough maybe not!

King, Do you have or have you used a Nova Scotia Tolling Dog? I had a friend who passed away a couple of weeks ago who had a wonderful one, "Rusty" that was a fabulous dog on just about any kind of fowl, be it geese, ducks or woodcock. What has been your experience with these dogs?
