Took dog out last week walking through stubble field he got stung over his eye. When i got home swelling had gone down later on he was fine .Took him out yesterday he was ok till we got to a stubble field he kept lagging behind then he stopped. I put him on lead and took him back to the car. Same thing happend to me a few years ago with my old lab on a electric fence. how do i sort it out. Dipper.

My 14 month springer is never still he gets plenty of walks .Indoors he runs about with his nose on the ground at one point he rubbed the skin of his nose. He also runs after shadows i have put tape over his name tag as he was chasing the reflection . He only stops if i make him sit next to me or put him in the cage. Dipper.

Hi Saddler Hope you got picks .Got some data on crimp taper with c/f cases loaded on lee loader 21.1/2 of 82 powder cci primer plaswad mk 4 1 1/4 oz shot without taper 1 inch pressure 2.8tons psi obv 950 ft per sec crimp pull 40lbs. heavy taper 4.2 tons psi obv 1040 ft per sec crimp pull 100 lbs . Lesson is dont overdo taper on c/f cases.or p/t cases. Dipper/

Hello Saddler I have a PW 375 the old one when i load a cartridge take it out of the holder i fixed a extra station on the right hand side. Made from crimping cone of a old bowman works great . If you want pictures let me know. Dipper.

Have you a magpie available i have shooting at Lymm but live in bolton thank you Dipper

My first gun was a 16 as a 14 year old it was a Manton s/b/s . Got my cartridges from Stensbys in withy grove served by old man stensby.Choice was grand prix 14/3 old money.A few years later maximum 16 bore came out they only lasted a year or 2 .A local farmer used a 16 to shoot foxes bolted by dogs. Dipper.

Used Vit 340 shotgun powder and vit N133 in 222 good powder. Dipper.

In my rifle cci mini mag same zero as winchester subs like shotguns no 2 are the same, rifle Anschutz x1v Dipper.

Out shooting pigeons some years ago shot one incomer about 20 yards away hole in breast size of golf ball.On same day shot a crosser at about 30 yards with second barrel when picked its head was missing.Gun was 1/4 and 1/2 game bore felt 6 Dipper.

Try Alan Myers would make them to your spec dont know if he still makes them Dipper.

I bet most long time reloaders have had shot in the powder.When shot was not costing a arm and a leg i would dump it .Had it happen last week so got out the dyson put nylon ie tights over the tube hold in place with hand round tube let nylon concave for about 1 inch sucking powder up hold tube over container . Switch vac off and tap .Then again till you have rescued your powder. Dipper.

I have a 8 month springer when i take him out he work well but he ranges too far ie 300 yards. How do i get him to work within gunshot say 30 yards.He runs out but returns every few minutes .Hes a very bold fast pup. Dipper.

Hi Redgum G96 Works well. Dipper.

Hi Ive got a early pw 375 got it new long time ago cost 80 clay game selling them for 495.Just seen a new price list AS powder up from 39 to 46 .Dipper.

Hi snow white 18 grn A1 will be fine. Dipper.

Been loading some heavy L/V loads with new cases useing frangible plastic top wad.Surfing the net on some reloading sites saw recommendations for card o/s wads 30 th thick cut some out of yellow card my thinking was to write data on wad so i could identify them. Loaded a few to try clays they seemed ok . on cleaning. barrels were not as clean as my usual cartridges. got me thinking with the thin card not much resistance holding the shot reducing the velocity a bit too much. Back to the drawing board.Dipper

Yes used them in early 60s being young i thought heavy loads were the way to go even on pigeons.A small gun shop used to load paper cartridges with 1 1/2oz in 2 3/4 case with green bat powder and r/t obviously loaded on the low velocity principle. They were cheaper than eley also remember getting a box of eley gastight from stensbys served by old man stensby. Dipper.

Went to weston park game fair yesterday didnt take tickets to stop me getting a new gun. I needed some primers and went to Norman Clark. Behind counter was a notice saying we will not sell powder without a ticket then went to claygame no notice i asked young lady could i have powder without ticket she said its a gray area wrote my name and address and phone no down and i was served. If its not law why do some people enforce it. Only ever came across this once years ago guy before me wanted to buy some 38 cal heads had no ticket so lady shop owner did not serve him.Local people will know shop owner. Dipper.

Hi Sitsinhedges Just found old catalogue 3rd edition 1992 clay game with load for gm3 special.win cap uniwad 1 5/8 oz 29gr powder 3,, case . Also shows chart for burning speeds of different powders gm3 special comes under slow burning powder magnum loads. standard gm3 was replaced with gm3 bd standing for black dot which comes under medium burn 1 1/8 1 1/4 Dipper.

Yes gm3 is a lot slower main use was 3inch magnum loads Dipper

Used it with 32g myself its not been available for years i will try and find some data.I will get back to you if i can find it.

G M 3 special is a slow powder not suitable for light loads Dipper

yes you can buy loose slugs quite legal, until you load them Dipper
