Not a pump but I squirrel and rabbit hunted with a Belknap 16 gauge for several years and still shoot it occasionally. It belonged to my Dad.

I use it for my 1 1/8 oz squirrel loads. Works very well on rabbits as well. I stick to Universal for 1 oz loads but getting frightfully low on that stuff. Will have to find a substitute soon.

I did a search to no avail so…Has anyone reloaded Magtech hulls and if so, how do you like them. I’m particularly interested in the length as I want them to cycle through my M12 and 1148 which Cheddit ... |

Sorry if this has been covered but what would be a good alternative to Universal? 1 oz. Load and 16 gauge of course.
Thanks, John. |

Switching from Cheddite to RGL's cured my M12 ejection problems. Cheddites are regulated to the Citori now.

Yeah Chilly I saw your original post and I thought wow, that looks near exhibition grade walnut. Beautiful wood for sure and with the bronze receiver makes for a very handsome gun.

Thanks 4x. From that info it looks like they are definitely the poly formed hulls and not CF which I didn’t think they were anyway. Plenty of load data for the poly hulls. My only hope is, that they a ... |

I have been working thru a box of a 1000 and have not had any issues. The box was yellow old and faded and some primers were discolored. You should be fine.
