Howdy, Im ralph

Ive been reloading for years. Just got into casting a couple years ago to try to save money. I think its paying off. I shoot in USPSA and 3 gun matches. Im here looking for info on reloading and casting for 12 gauge. Brenekke slugs are getting expensive. Im looking for an alternative that I can cast and load myself.

yep there is a whole section on casting for shotguns.
the same rules apply for those molds as for the others, so that's general information, but the load development is more specialized.
welcome aboard.

Welcome Ralph!
Copy the info you find and paste it into a Word document. Saves on the ink a bit....

Print it to PDF and save it in electronic format for when you're offline.

Good Evening Ralph. Yes as the others have said this is a great place to hang your hat and look around. I usually start at the top and work my way down to see if anything posted catches my fancy. I have a few "favorite" places on here that I spend a little more time on. I imagine your favorite place might be the casting for shotgun area since you mentioned you were into that at the moment. I really recommend you look the stickies over to see if any of the topics there is something of interest to you. Since you have been lurking for a while you might have already figured out where you want to be. At any rate I am sure you will learn much about any shooting topic you desire to delve into. Enjoy.
