I'm probably to far north but you can get a hold of the MN trappers association and I am sure they can put you together with some willing trappers.
For me its weather dependent but I have yet to build a "shack"; mostly popup blinds. I spent countless hours on tree stands, hunted from under the pines and prefer that way but with weather like we...
Great story, the M1 Carine is a formidable weapon; it's dispatched many an enemy combatant in the right hands. I have my father-in-laws .30 cal that he bought during the Watts riots , it sat in his...

I have built cone shaped boxes with double slots to accommodate the springs, I can get a measurement for you latter after Christmas activities. I have also used corrugated plastic sheeting and...

I personally like to hang my meat for a week or so, gut it out fairly quickly and drag it to the garage; I am fortunate enough that I can hunt literally in my back yard. I try and use what I can, a...
Number 10-12 and dust are most likely made by the sieve method dropped in a shot tower. I would believe the surface tension of the lead alloy would be to much that it would not flow through such a...
My shotgun showed up Fed-ex today, no explanation or indication of an opinion of what happened. It appears everything forward of the receiver was replaced except for the hand guard.
Okay, rest assured that gun didn’t blow up and kill or maim anyone. Except for the gun not cycling correctly and the report getting load in the covered rifle range shooting shed; there was no...
New, had it since the beginning of the year. Had less then a box of rounds through before this point.
Actually sent a return reply to RAI Friday, all they asked for was serial number, number of rounds and ammo type which I told them Remington 1oz. Slugs which is mostly true as I was shooting them...
RAI VR80 12 gauge, at style shot gun. Rupture is past gas port but before threads that hold hand guard on.
Well got a chance to try out the solid bottom 525, I had several loads but LS was looking good then....
I’m not sure if 24.2 grains was to much or too little. Not sure if it side loaded to much,...
Yes, I thought similar and actually only using the press for the crimp. The primers are not compressed or very slight. The gun shoots factory loads of all types with out issues so I’m leaning towards...
I have five of there manuals and three other brands as well for shotguns. Plus the entire internet.
Note: there is not as many loads in their manuals as you think.
I’ve fired a few now through three different guns, 15.1 does not flatten the primer at all; fairly dirty. The wad and barrel are all scooted up leading me to believe I’m not getting enough...
I’d be really interested in your results; my plan is to load them with #5 or #6 for grouse and such.
I read your comments on the thread about 3” shells, I’ve set up an older PW375 which has good...
Not exactly a book load, BP has a load with A410 and a fiocci load at 16-18 grains. I’ve emailed them with a request for a safe starting load but haven’t seen an answer yet. After a lot of reading I...
I have one ordered - #4/00. I didn’t see the note about new equipment until later but I’m okay with it as he is a small business and needs support in this BS times.
Muddy dog, can you take a...
I’ve jumped on the .410 ban wagon and got all set up to load 3”. I was able to get cheddite halls and BP stretch wads.
My trial load is:
3” Cheddite halls - new primed
BPI stretch wad
278+...
I would have thought this as BS too but then I heard on a outdoor pod cast that you can't return a fish to the water in Europe (Maybe England) because its considered cruel to fish for sport so you...
I have a print out of doing a trigger job on H&R’s; I’ve used it to replace broken sear on a 20 gauge. I’ll try and find the web link.

Where you able to recover any wads or such? Curious to see if the gas seal and wads held pressure.
I know this question has probably been asked on more then one occasion but I don’t know if I could find the answer in a timely manner.
I’m casting a NOE Lyman 525 sabot clone; I believe it’s...
Just curios but was this a hollow base WC? With needing it weight forward for a smooth bore, just wondering if a hallow base wad cutter would work more like a slug/wad combination
