    They went BOOM, lots of smoke but breezy so no problem getting a second shot of. killed well the ones that got in the way of the shot column. Some of the guns tried them and were impressed.????

    Yes it came of a Lightwood and son pedal powered so could have been late 1800s

    Just a few for Thursday pheasants, 30 gram 6s, just hope there's a bit of wind to help get the second shot away (should I need it)? the spinner head is pre WW1 and still makes a nice job. ??

    I reload spreader wads for full choke at close range, gives a sleet pattern when you require it. cut the barrel down years ago for same reason, ?

    For anyone going the add on route, which I have, after trying numerous scopes the best so far is a 3x9x40 Stoeger. its ginclear, even my ball bearings are visible at 25 yards, I know it isn't side parralex but it isn't dear iether, £55 but mine was second hand. now need another one for the HMR17.

    Half ounce clay loads 2.5 chambers but shot a lot of 5/8 loads in 3 inch with 12 grain. still loading at this, still here? This recipe was given to me when I bought the Pacific 266 set up for these loads and had been tested. John
  20. Snarepeg
    10 grain of Blue dot , good 410 powder been useing this for 30 years .

    Shot size mainly depends on size of hole in dripper, but can also alter bigger or smaller slightly with weight of lead above or below dripper. also temperature can alter it slightly. its a learning curve but well worth the effort if you are reloading a fair amount.
  22. Snarepeg
    Have made shot with more deviices over the years, some good some bad and some .awfull. using a 150 volt 2 shotdropper from New Zealand borrowed from a friend. its dropping good 5/6 shot but changing the drippers to 7.5 for clays. lead is a mix of sheet and old piping, melted and cleaned and into ingots courtesy of wife's baking trays.? Will have go at getting some photos up after tomorrow.
  23. Snarepeg
    Have started to drop lead shot again. have dropped it for 50 years into Diesle on top of water, then had to go thru the cleaning process which was a pain. have been dropping into fabric liquid, with decent results and easy to wash of. just tried a run with cheap anti freeze and well pleased, it rinses of fine, shot good anough for game or clays . lead sources aren't as good as they used to be but it's keeping me in front on reloading costs. now where's the wife's colander ? Just need to siv it thru.
  24. Snarepeg
    No. 209 are not Magnum, just a standard type used in lots of clay/game cartridges. if yours are 209 fine. John
  25. Snarepeg
    I have a lot of black powder cartridge cases, they have 209 primers fitted so what's good for the factory should be ok.enjoy. John
