    Craig Maylam was the guy. And he suggested Richard at Wilhelm Arms. But Richard may have only had the hi skor 800x that I needed.
    Do gun works stock shotgun powder?

    I have tons of powder. Just need primers, wads and hulls. I have a couple slabs of gamebore I have not fired off yet so I probably can try reloading those shells first.
    Do what ya want! Ya will anyway.

    Ok. I could have a look at how many primers I have here if you struggle. It will get you going at least.
    What powder is it?

    For years we loaded shottie ammo in 12g for our Benelli's. Got my son the 20g M2. Unfortunately we use bugger all shells because he 90% time smokes the pheasants with 1 shot. The 20g beats the 12g hands down [ or is it because of his skill level?]. Essentially saying the 20g has lead to a reduction in the ammo used.The MEC is basically a fail safe way to produce good ammo.

    Browny would see me coming a mile off Madds. The whole point is to start my boy off reloading the way I did. I get in late to CHCH when you're our prowling the streets. I will give you a buzz soon mate. Will have some more meat for you as well, with any luck.
