Black Powder Shotshell Loading
Dang Hoot. I wish I would have known. I think I still have some BP loaded 12's around somewhere...
I learned most of what I could from this page:
http://www.tbullock.com/bpsg.html
I basically loaded equal volume of powder and shot. I used felt wads I got from Circle Fly and bought a 3/4" punch and made my own over shot wads. I bought an old bench mounted roll crimper but I think ballistic Products sells one you can mount in a drill press.
When I shot CAS I had an 1889 Remington 12 ga before I moved onto a 10 ga 1884 Remington that was cut down to 18.5". That was a crowd pleaser!!
