I was a little afraid of that sort of thing. I know a good stock fitter in my area, but I'm going to use someone in their network. It shouldn't make any difference, but what the heck.

I think i ...

I think I'll be placing an order for a 20ga Venus yet this weekend.
Once you add up the extras to get the Zuess where you want, the Venus is pretty close I think. Hope to have it by Nov.

ALL Federal 16 ga. hulls currently are paper based.

If you have 800-X that is an excellent choice for 1 1/8 oz. loads. Follow the Hodgdon data, it is a great choice.

Ya...I've been using it for ...

Hi all,
I need to load up some 1 1/8 oz pheasant loads for an upcoming trip out west.
I have 800-x and some 20/28, and I'd like to use some purple, Federal "game load" hulls.
My ques ...

I had a 1 1/8 oz load tested, turned out slightly over on pressure. You could drop half a grain of powder or go with your 1 1/16 oz shot to bring in into line. I used the Cheddite case and the so call ...

You can get to 1300 FPS with an 1 1/8 oz. load and 800-X.

I have a 1270 FPS 1 1/8 oz. load using 800-X. 1 1/8 oz. fits perfectly in a Federal hull using the SP-16.

What's up with 1 1/16 oz?

Hi all.
I found this load on a previous post here. Can I substitute Chedite Hull for the Federal?

Hi all. Looking for a 1 1/16 oz. load utilizing 800-x for Pheasants. I have both Rem hulls and Chedites. I also have SP-16 wads. Looking for 1280-1300 fps approx.

Thanks.

I would say, enjoy the ENTIRE experience. To me, that means the stop at the restuarant for breakfast with my buddies, the lunch break on the tailgate of the truck...or better yet watching evening set ...

As stated by others....it depends on the kind of hunting you're doing. Over pointing dogs, you really want a fairly open choke. IC/ mod are just fine...and you get go more open if you want. My go-t ...

Hi all.
I purchased some Fiocchi pre-primed hulls from Precision Reloading a few years ago, but sold my 16ga shortly thereafter. Just picked up a new SxS and now its time to load! I have the foll ...

Are there any loads utilizing Red Dot for 7/8 or 1 oz 16 ga? I use Red Dot for my 12 ga trap loads and it would be convenient to use it for 16 ga target or sporties loads.

thanks.

wow...you know how to open a can of worms!
I'm a Llewellin guy. Love them. But...honestly...it really depends upon WHAT YOU LIKE TO WATCH in the field. They all have good noses (if from a good lin ...

My son and I just got back from NoDak...just over the boarder from Aberdeen. They had snow in Oct and the harvest is late. About 40% of the corn was still up and that made birds tough. I'm sure the ...
