Shot shell reloading
So where do you find recipes for non-fancy shot shells? Ie I have mostly old field load shells these days, with a few buckshot and slug hulls lying around. All I find for recipes is for AA and STS hulls.

It depends
I refer to the Lyman Shotshell Manual and they have a lot of good information. Hope this helps. All the best...

popplecop,
That was nice of you to send a Lee Load All to GOB. I got a Load All in 12 gauge in a swap last January-I love the machine and it works as good as my old MEC 12 gauge reloader. Adam

GOB:
You can also use google books to read online about reloading shotshells and recipes, the books are either for purchase or (some) available as a free download to view if you have a pdf reader. http://www.google.com/search?q=shotg...&tbm=bks&tbo=1

Skeet, looks like I am lower than I remembered. No shot shell powder left to speak of (mostly trail boss, unique, and hp-38) a few primers and around 5lbs of #6 shot, maybe a quarter pound of #8, and a pound of #14 (for snake shot loads). Looks like I had burned up more than I remembered back when I was loading 12 gauge (which somebody else needed the old 12 gauge loader a lot more than I did so it has already been passed on to a good home). No wads except paper and fiber that were given to me. All my shells I find for 20 gauge offhand are from Remington field loads. I know I have others packed away somewhere.
So yeah, think I must have gave away some components or they grew legs. GoodOlBoy
