It'll be interesting to learn what wad/hull combo that recipe has in it.



That info I know - Cheddite hulls trimmed to 2-9/16" with the BPI SG-16 wad. I started with new pre-primed hull ...

High pressure grease works really well, stays put even under high loads and lots of cycles. The food grade kind doesn't stain things like anti seize does.

I recently ran through a round of trap using Longshot. I'm not home right now so I'm not going to post the recipe I used without my notes handy.

I have not chronographed this load yet because my n ...

Saying I have a shotgun problem is like saying Bruce Lee had a Kung Fu problem. It's not a problem when you're the best at it.

The 1922 L.C. Smith 16 gauge Specialty Grade with 26" barrels and "lightweight" frame that I have weighs in at 6 lbs 8.5oz.

Personally, I would hesitate to call a 16 double weighing ...

So digging around in my collection of once-fired hulls, I measured a bunch (30 each) of Remington Game Load (black) hull and Federal Game Shok (purple) hulls. I have a fair amount of Winchester hulls ...

Just curious, because I saw a beautiful Drilling the other day, SxS 16 over some Euro rifle caliber -

Are these European rifle calibers readily available somewhere, or do those of you that use the ...

As alluded to above, the Rizzini Comp 16 might qualify as the queen of 16 gauge guns today. With adjustable comb option, it’s quite remarkable.

If, assuming low recoil is the main concern that's another story. FWIW, RGL's in my experience have a sharp bite to them.

I can promise you, a 2-3/4" RGL in a short chamber 2-9/16" gun ma ...

You know, I have a few cases of RGL's I bought over 10 years ago and a few boxes I bought in the last year or so, so I will fire some off next time I go to trap league night and measure the hulls to s ...

I shoot trap in league most of the year, and use a Beretta 12ga with 30" barrels for that. I have a couple years to go before I save up enough Cabela's bucks to fund the 725 Trap Max or Trap Gold ...

I was a fan of RST, in fact I have a bunch of boxes of 16ga papers in #7 I found I had (much to my delight), but these days I just reload my own.

I bought 2-3 different hull trimmers, and was unhap ...
