Shotgun reloading

#1 Post by johngarnett »

OK, so I now have it - my renewed FAC with sect 1 shotgun.

With the Phoenix looming can I ask you guys about reloading slug and / or shot, presses, reload v. buying etc.

I hope to pick up some 'stuff' whilst at Bisley so any guidance would be appreciated from the bottom up please!

Many thanks all

Im sure that SimG will be about soon, he uses a Lee load all and a lee slug mould to great effect in his Benelli, and IIRC can produce a complete round for less than 20p each using new primed cases altogh ill stand corrected.
It is also something I will be setting up for later this year once I have a new S1 shotgun
What is a Sapper? This versatile genius condenses the whole system of military engineering and all that is useful and practical. He is a man of all work of the Army and the public ready to do anything or go anywhere, in short, he is a Sapper.

General concensus seems to be reloading for slug or steel type high bird loads etc. can be a bit cheaper, for "normal" loads ie. clay bashing it's cheaper to buy manufactured from around £160 per 1000 at the moment for Lyalvale, Eley Firsts etc.
