20 guage

OA.....PM sent

Your handy kelvins have you checked with him to see what might be available . Or flint and steel in Debert . Hummason in ontario would also be a good starting point . For powder and wads . Leads shot they will have. shipping one bag will be expensive .I would try to source the lead locally if at all possible . Pick a load you wish to build and buy the exact componetes for that load including the hulls ,primer ,wads and powder . A 2 3/4" 7/8 0z load at 1200 fps with the aproperately sized shot will harvest all the grouse ,pheasants and rabbits one could carry .

And heres the data for hodgdons site

Just change the hulls to get the right loads

Shouldn't use those CB wads for Cheddite or Federal hulls Tim. They have a lead in taper for Remington and Winchester hulls (which are also tapered) The feds and the cheds are straight walled hulls and there's a real good chance of getting powder migration past the gas seal.

It wouldnt let me post specific loads just the front page
I figured he could play with the hulls/wads/powder i listed until he found a good combo

The gun dealer as a good selection of 20ga stuff compared to 410 and 28ga.

410 and 28 ga hulls go real fast on there...lol
We know how long that stuff lasts on the net don't we 😅😅

Winchester and sts I get 25 cents each now no questions asked in 410 and 28ga Last of the 410 win what I call the inhouse easy to find stash of 400 left went yesterday rest are buried in the garage which is a sept job and have to count the 410 before I sell anymore since I want to keep 4000 or so in case that club is ever built

Sometimes those hard to find hulls just mysteriously appear in the mail too !!...wink wink, nudge, nudge...lmao right Joe ?

Yep as you know never be short since you have friends in LOW places as I have been told
The 28ga and 410 mainly came from Irv's shooting supply for maybe 12 years Not sure if you dealt with him LLoyd a hell of a shooter and a super nice guy reminded me of ross
I said every 410 and 28 ga hull you get I will buy just send them and your cheque will be in the mail and he did
Even then and he gathered in Ontario where there was a lot of shooting I may see just one or two boxes a year so they were hard to get even in the day
take care

Gotta give a big shout out to kevin for helping me with this !!!!! Thanks again man. Loaded 80 shells from your load work ups and hulls. Your a gentlemen and a schollar. And if ya dont believe me just ask me. Now time to start paterning them and see what fits best.

I was more than happy to help out a younger shooter/ hunter , he has a great mentor in Tim and I was simply passing on the torch many still fight to keep lit and show when a friend is asking for a favor that favor will be looked after properly , even if means dig in to my own a little .
