Does anyone have one of these older shotguns? I need the barrel measurements.
I made a .410 air shotgun on a qb-78 frame a long while ago and used cut down 410 wads as sabots for 35 cal lead balls. Worked pretty dang well. Rang the 12" gong at 100 yards
I couldn't ask for better information. I ordered a .44 cal barrel this week hoping it would be alright. Ill post pictures of the build when I get started.
I couldn't ask for more or better information, I just ordered the. 44 barrel Wednesday I think. I've got some drawings of my idea that I plan to build. Ill post them later tonight.
Yes. That's just fuel to the fire. Lol what size barrel do I need
I've been toying around with the idea of a rifled .410 slug gun. I bought a Springfield 944 action at a flea market for 20 bucks. Here in Ohio we can use 410 for deer. Where would I start? Barrel...
At the moment I am using one thin felt disk and a 1/4" cork wad below my shot cup. Its doing alright but I want to know if I can use a granular filler instead. On top of the gas seal and below the...
I know not to put anything under the gas seal filler wise. But wouldn't a hard card help seal? And is it ok to add a filler between the gas seal and shot cup?
I understand that you can't always mess with wad column in shot shells but is the following safe?
Because I have the crappy gas seal from bpi, could I add a hard card under it for a better seal? Is...
You are correct, I am using a 20 ga and so far with 20/28 I have not had any bloopers loading 14-18gr seems to work nicely and accurate. My only problem is finding loads. I got some international...
Thanks, I am actually using a .54 ball with cork board under the ball to bring the height up
how do loads react when you subsutute a heavy load for a lighter one? like this load=
7/8oz shot CCI 209 17gr of 20/28 Windjammer wad 1200fps 8060psi
if you subsutute a the 7/8oz with say 1/2 oz?...
The powder is hogden international clays technology. I am waiting on a few manuals from my uncle right now. When the wife allows me to spend more money on my supplies I'll have to get some different...
What makes it undesirable? If the ball weights less than the shot load shouldn't it get good velocity? Also, has any one used hogden 50bmg powder in a shotshell? Its very very slow burning. Also, im...
I've been searching for load data but can't find much. Im using 20/28, unique, and clays. Red gas seals also using the 2 pedal wad from bpi and .54 ball that's close to half an ounce.
So is there a limit on how long the tail can be beforeit is pointless?
At what point does the tail of the slug become too long? What if you took a rod of poliethylene and machined them into nondiscarding sabots. You could put gas rings and bore out the front for what...
thanks for the input, you are correct, it is for a wad column in a round ball load, i have seen someone use styrafoam for a wad column on this forum and thats where i got the idea. also i am goin to...
whats the best material to make wads out of? i bought some material today to work with. some of what i got is foam like you see in the big foam #1 hands people have at sporting events. another is...
the barrel its self is fine, im not new to guns and some gun smithing lol. the crown was lopsided.
686176861868616i have a remington rifled 20g slug barrel with cantaliever scope mount. from the factory it had a bad crown, i had a local machinist try to crown it but it didnt turn out. anyone on...
that makes since, why do i see people here or on another forum talking about not using crimps? they seal with bees wax or some other kind of wax. and what about brass shells? i have read about just...
