A member here who was very dedicated to the 16ga for duckhunting, and did some great reloading work and 16ga posts elsewhere. He passed away just recently, and will be missed. He was probably the most dedicated poster for the 16ga steel handload for duck hunting on both RefugeForums and DuckHUntingChat.com, and was a real advocate for the gauge.
Some of you may have known him as BTJustice at DHC, or 10gageNut at Refuge forums, but wherever you knew him you'll recall how much he loved to share his extensive reloading knowledge with others. I was lucky to call Joe Speroni a friend for a few years now, if only online, and will miss his large online presence. RIP. |

| I read quite a few of his posts at the Refuge and he was definitely a passionate shotgunner with much to share. Sorry to hear about this. |

Didn't know his moniker on this site, was aware of his passion for 16 & especially 10ga.
I'm new to refugeforums.com since xmas but it is obvious how genuine, forthright and passionate a Person, Waterfowler and Shotgunner he was. Huge loss, Godspeed sir... |

I will certainly miss his posts! I have gathered a lot of good knowledge from him.

God bless his family and may he rest in peace on the big duck pond in the sky. |
