  3. reloading advise please

    in Bullets, Cartridges and Reloading

    Posted

    Thanks I am loading new primed 70mm chedite high brass cases with 1.85 grms of maxam psb2 b&p z18 wads 36 grms 0f #5 lead shot as recommended by clay&game they pattern nice and don't leave dirty barrels actually they are cleaner than the victory whites, just wanted to tidy up the crimps as said above they where needing I light push to chamber ok now but leaving a slight crease on one side just above the brass maybe worth trying putting 35 grms of shot instead and try that, what you think !!

    Hi guys,

    Im relatively new to reloading shotgun shells and everything is fine apart from the quality of my finished crimps they are just not as tidy as the factory ones,doesn't matter whether I do a eight or a six star they look untidy and don't fit in the gun nicely the factory loads just drop in the chambers whilst the home loads have to be pushed slightly,

    is there a good crimp finishing tool out there that I can use to tidy them up and give them a taper which isn't really expensive,

    I don't have a pillar drill so didn't really want to buy a geap finishing tool as I believe you need one to use this design of tool,

    Any advise would be helpful or do anyone have one for sale, its for 12 gauge shells,

    regards alf..

    I do all types off shooting so I wanted a dog that was more durable/versatile for want of a better word, a dog that would retrieve anything anywhere, yes labs are good for the purpose they were intended and yes springer's are good for the purpose they were intended but as I said I wanted more, so a lab x springer it was, what I wanted was a small black lab on steroids so to speak and that's what I got.

    my lab x springer gundog will go anywhere through a thorn hedge, a pond, ditch, dyke, jump any obstacle in her way to get the mark, she is also a superb flush dog for rough shooting and a excellent dog in the pigeon hide will go all day no tiring very clever dog as I only use dead birds as decoys and will just sniff them as they have my cent on them will leave them and pick up the fresh shot birds only, she has won 3 first's 2 second's and a third in gundog scurry's this year.

    And all with a guaranteed 2 pips on the whistle she's back by my feet, so it matters not the dog but the training and dedication given to the dog and for what you want from the dog,

    The only downside is they are a bit accident prone as they are fearless so expect a few cuts and bumps ...

    thanks for that hunter ben

    I thought that might be the solution to the problem, just didn't know if they made a bushing larger than the 198 you get in the set when you buy it new

    seem to me maxam psb2 powder is very light in weight compared to others made in the usa ...

    hi all,

    I have recently purchased a new lee load-all 2 reloader to start reloading 12 gauge cartridges

    I bought maxam psb+2 powder and #5 shot to load 36 gram loads in a 70mm cartridge on the maxam bottle it say I need to charge this load with 1.85 grams of powder which is I believe 28 grains so I put the largest powder bushing which come with the loadall kit which is numbered 198 in the loadall charge bar but it only drop 24.5 grains of powder when weighed on scales, have anyone got any suggestions please as I don't know if lee make a larger bushing..

    dogs will dig a hole to protect themselves from the elements whether it be to keep warm in the winter or to keep cool in the summer although this is normally done under cover of a hedge etc

    it is a natural thing for them my girls have a hole under my conifer hedge to keep cool in the hot weather whilst they are outside they prefer this to there kennel as it is cooler

    mixed breeding is what keeps dogs healthy physically and mentally where do you think Labradors or ess's come from these breeds are man made, the only limitations any dog have is in the trainers ability to understand the individual dog , personally I would rather see healthier dogs in the field they have more drive and live longer..
