Makin Shot

Don't think I am trashing homemade but I have made shot in the past. It really does work..BUT. It can be a very dangerous business. Do it in a WELL ventilated place. It is also time consuming. The shot out of a Littleton is usually pretty good. As for me I just bought a 55 gal drum of recycled shot..70 cents a lb. It'll last me for a while i guess. I also have about a ton and a half of Mag 8 8 1/2 and 9 and about 10 bags of 7 1/2 which I really don't use too much. I also have 20 cases of 12 ga I bought at an auction(STS Rem) for 35 bucks a case and at least that many of each of the small gauges. I just bought an old 20 box case of Remington skeet loads from a guy for 50 bucks but I doubt I will shoot 'em and I ran up on 3 cases(20 bx) of Fed Paper 20 ga skeet loads... cost me 3 bucks a box. Should I shoot them??
