Funny that you should ask - the postman delivered mine today, approx. 300 by weight.

I got mine on Wednesday. Good to know Recob's stand by their commitments.

That is good news guys. I was holding off on the comments to allow Kris to find the time to get them out. He told me he had all he needed from Remington a couple of weeks back to cover the shortages. However, Recob's has been swamped with preseason orders from their commercial accounts. He promised to get them sent out as soon as he could. Since most of us had bought 5000 or more, I figured there would be no problem. He also informed me my researched weight calculation for 5000 R16 wads is dead on the money. Remington will be using the data to insure that no more packing shortages will occur on future orders.

Thanks again for you patience and cooperation. Alls well that ends well. Enjoy the wads.16GG

Low and behold, my supplemental wads were on my back stasirs when I got home Friday. It seems Recob made sure we got more than we were shorted originally. I certainly appreciate their efforts on our behalf. They are a fine company to do business with in my book. 16GG.

Black and Tan - I thought your handle was in honor of the famous British Pub beer mixer. A black and tan is half Guinness stout and half Bass pale ale. Hits the spot.
