Anyone have any Federal hulls they can part with? Need a bunch so I can work up some 2.5" 1 1/8oz roll crimped long range chukar loads. 50-100 would be enough. Just drop me a pm or email at mark@marklarsonart.com and let me know how much you want for them.

Thanks!

The 16 ga Feds that I have are loaded so I'm guessing you aren't interested in those. If you wanted 12 ga, I do have some Gold Medals That I could part with to a good home.

Does anyone here load Gold Medal paper hulls, cut down for 2 1/2”, with an ounce of shot? This would be for a 12 gauge. What components do you use?

I used to be able to buy more than enough short 12s to keep the single short chamber gun I still own running, but, that has become impossible.

Thanks in advance,

Best,
Ted

I should have been more clear, that I'm looking for 16ga Federals. Appreciate the replies!

Dean, which UA were you referring to? Feel free to pm me.

Mark, for what it is worth, I have been loading some fold crimp 1 ounce buffered loads for long shots at chukar in 2 1/2" hulls (Rem, Ched, and Fed) and been very impressed with them. Considering the performance level, I wouldn't bother roll crimping for the extra 1/8 oz. of shot at this point. I have some Federals, but the reload count on them is getting high enough that I wouldn't be willing to send them to anyone, they might not last much longer.

Ted, I recently started loading 2 1/2" 12 ga. for a friend but the closest I have come to your hull is 2 1/2" Cheddite style hulls. I have also been loading 2 1/2" Rem STS cut downs and like those a lot. We haven't messed with paper or paper base wad hulls in the gun, but I will admit papers sure do smell nice when fired.

Federal is right up the street from me. I have access to lots of them, at slim cost.

I didn’t actually think about the smell of them, but, there is that.

Best,
Ted

Forgot to mention, you should check the hulls for stowaway quail feathers.
