A "Ridger" from The Snow Shoe region of Central PA showed me how to do it back in the "50's".
He put a sweet 12 gauge hole in a fence post at 20 yards by cutting into a paper shot shell just south of the
No. 6 shot load completely around the case deep enough so it would break loose on ignition a go forward with the shot
as a complete unit and stay together until impact without opening up the shot wad. Nice way to substitute
for a "Punkin Ball" when you needed some quick venison in the larder.
Do you oldies remember the "fragrance" of the Remington Kleanbore 22 shells right of the box and how the
lube on the outside of the bullet made the pocket fuzz stick to them ? A friend of mine purchased a box at a gun show several years ago to give me the treat of that wonderful memory, . . . but the smell was all gone !
