I have several cans of Hodgdon Powders:
Universal Clays Technology,
Universal, and
Clays.
Are these all the same powder?

A friend recently gave me a sack of SG16S wads. I am having trouble finding reloading info on these. I assume that they are designed for 3/4 ounce loads. Are they for 2-3/4" hulls? Any help would ...

On your recommendations, I purchased a Thomas Ferney leather gun case. I think it is a absolute bargain at $200. It seems to be well-made and sturdy. It is heavier than I expected. It will house my 16 ...

Thanks for the help. It looks like I need to get a new reloader for 2-1/2" hulls. I just purchased a new (to me) Mec 9000G 16ga reloader. My wife would not be pleased with me bringing home anothe ...

The worst misses shot memory I have was in Kansas in 1979. The pheasant population then was huge compared to today. I was west of Dodge when I spied a pheasant cross the road and drop into rough cover ...

This is indeed sad news. I bought a used 16 ga model IV a few years ago. It might have had a couple of boxes of shells run through it. In fact the action was still stiff. I had to break it in myself. ...

Not shooting a gun is a sacrilege! That would be like taking a perfectly good shooter, say a Fox 16ga ejector with # 3 weight 28" barrels, and tarting it up. Rebuilding it into a wonderfully-stoc ...

WyoChuckar,
I too have been bitten by the agony bug when I ordered a Bournbrook from MW Reynolds. It was a rounded model 4 with the wood of my choosing, and built to my dimensions. It was ordered fro ...
