NEW BRING BACK / Hevi-Shot

[Marc]

Can you buy components to load your own shells in Cali?  You can hand load TSS for less than the HEVI 13.

It's really simple!

My issues with beginning to load are cost and time.

So would would be the start-up cost to start loading?  MEC Jr. loader, wads, hulls, powder, primers, and of course shot?

On a good year, I am firing 3 shots at a turkey, so I doubt I would break even on the cost of loading for turkey hunting in my lifetime...

I primarily hunt waterfowl, with a lot of dove and upland hunting...  Different components there.  So of course, I would try to make up some cost by loading that ammunition, but talking to people that do currently load, I would have to be doing a lot of shooting to make up for the start-up cost to begin loading.  And my understanding is that factory steel is still cheaper than loading (any) premium shot for waterfowl.

Understandable, I was only referring to TSS, I hand load, no press, roll crimp with a dewalt I already had.

My 870 loves the 3' 2oz #6's Hevi's.  Thankfully I still have several boxes.

I only carried it after a part on my 20ga broke last spring, but my SBE2 shoots any "hevi shot type ammo great, I have some xtended range left, but it shot the original Remington version of hevi, the clear white hulled hevi shot and mag blends all extremely well.

Sucked carrying that cannon for a few days in the mountains, the extra lb and change is noticeable, but the xtended range and old Jelly head .660 are lethal!
