Duck Loads
« on: August 24, 2022, 11:24:32 AM »
Shouldn't be a shortage on duck loads this season.  Seeing lots and lots of duck & goose loads shipping into all the stores.  I still picked up 6 cases to be on the safe side for this season.
Cut em!
It's not the shells!  It's the shooter!

It's starting to come in pretty good currently as long as you don't shoot a short mag.  Trying to find .300 WSM is nearly impossible currently.

That should get you comfortably through opening weekend.  :tup:

If you have an extra arm and a leg choice ammunition has some cool loads and a bunch in stock

I don't worry about waterfowl ammo; I load my own. From 20ga 2 3/4, 3", 12ga 2 3/4, 3" 3 1/2 and 10ga. And I've been known to load 410 and 28 nontoxic for our feathered friends.

I need to learn how to do this. I hunt with older 16ga guns most of the time, and sometimes a 75 year old 20ga  - all 2-3/4". It's sometimes very difficult finding the right shells for the 16's, especially in the configuration I want. I really want to learn to reload non-toxic shot for all of them, old 12ga guns, also.
