7/8 oz. loads using W572 will work in the 16 gauge, but it isn't a great combination. W572 is a bit on the slow side for 7/8 oz. unless you bring the velocity well into the 1,350+ FPS range. You will ... |

I have no experience with fiber wads using TSS. I do have a lot of experience with fiber wads with steel, lead and bismuth.
I would toss the cork and felt wads and subsitute .125 card wads and fibe ... |

If the crimp starter is popping of its mounting stud, you have the crimp starter set too low.
9000GN? That is at least a 300 shell per hour machine.
As I stated in my previous post, the adjustm ... |

8mmFan,
You cannot compare a 600 Jr. to a 9000 series machine. The 600 Jr. is a very simple tool compared to a 9000 which is a machine.
To be successful with a 9000G the adjustments you make are ... |

Thanks, but I have gotten some .125 28 ga. nitro cards. That will do just fine for 7/8 oz. loads for quite awhile. |

FWIW, Precision Reloading has all the 16 gauge wads in stock except for the DR16 and a B & P gas seal.
All Gualandi, B & P and Remington wads are available as of 8:20 AM CDT 4/19/2024 |

citori16guy,
Precision Reloading has SP16's in stock. The R16 was discontinued many years ago. |

I 100% agree with WyoChucker. Yes the DR16 is/was a very nice wad for 3/4 and 7/8 ounce loads, but since you are using Winchester CF hulls all the wads you need are available from Claybuster and Remin ... |

If you are within 0.3 grain, you are wasting time and effort trying to be exact. Why? First, because most printed velocities are rounded up or down. Second, because +/- 20 FPS isn't going to affect br ... |

I believe Nick Hammack. He owns the molds, not DownRange. He said this might be the last run. |

Cold Iron,
Thanks for that update.
It makes sense that Hodgdon has pretty much covered Clays and International, using Titewad, High Gun (Titegroup) and Perfect Pattern as their available powders ... |

FallCreekFan,
Hodgdon really didn't promise Clays, International or Universal for 2024. Their statement for those powders was vague and only hinted they might be made in 2024.
I would highly dou ... |

Builder,
Charles Hammack, posted earlier this year that if you wanted DR16 wads, this would be the time to buy them and stock up.

I agree, I get as much as I can from Recob's.
But Precision uses Speedee also, but you have to ask. |
