tips on shotgun reloading

doddcameron:

I have been reloading for trap shooting for over a year now, with no issues. I use a mec 600, and a 366 auto progressive press. I was lucky enough to have someone show me the powder manufactures websites with reloading data, and explain to me all of the differences in wads, hulls etc.

If you want, I can take an hour or two and show/tell you what I know about reloading (for trap/skeet anyhow).

I live only about 20 min from Peterborough.

Cheers,

James
 
The lyman shotshell reloading book has nice colour pictures that show you what hulls are what. It also has a lot of data in it for birdshot, buckshot and slugs. I used it when I first started, but since I have started using the data off of the powder manufacturers websites. From time to time I still go back to it.
 
re. red winchester wads.

winchester,did produce red 12 ga. wads,but they are shorter than www12

wads ,they where for magnum loads 1.25 to1.38 oz . you will not get

pressure on non magnum loads. use www12 for 1.18 loads they are

longer and you will get proper pressures.
