Patrick, all you need to make the 410 loads to your specs is a roll crimp tool and a small scale. Of course you will need a bag of 410 pre-primed hulls, powder, some tss shot, a bag of wads, overshot cards, and a bag of the felt filler wads. Your initial cost in equipment will be about...

That half ounce charge of TSS won't work in a 20 gauge, trust me we have tried. With TSS being extremely dense the shot columns are ultra short. 1/2oz of TSS in a 20ga wad takes up little to no room. 5/8oz in a 20ga will work but it requires some serious fillers and wad trimming to take up...

The 410 with TSS is plenty capable of taking any species of North American waterfowl. I have killed everything from teal to Sandhill cranes with my tristar 410. You need to handload your shells to really reduce recoil. No, this isn't as scary as it sounds. All you need is a small digital scale...

Just a reminder, no choke tube or ammo marketing department can change simple physics and shotshell ballistics. Here's a comparison of 1350 fps steel vs. 1500 fps in common sizes. You can see that by increasing speed we only pick up three yards or so of penetration. And when we step up one...

They are great boats, made about 15 minutes down the road from my house. Don't expect it to paddle like a canoe or kayak though. They are more of a "freighter" style flat bottom. Not performance paddlers

I am glassing the whole bottom of my TDB 14 Classic because of years of wear from breaking ice (n) It definitely takes its toll. The fiberglass laminate those boats were constructed with is nothing substantial

Wyatt, that is awesome that your old man was able to join you in the blind. Great to hear he fought back!! Looks like you guys had some great hunts. We weren't able to hunt as much as usual this month. We have only got 5 hunts in so far, but they've been some good ones. We have shot 211. Hoping...

It is just rough cut pine that's been kiln dried. My buddy's dad runs a lumber yard here local and he has a jointer and all the associated tools needed for joining things together to make a nice table top. I can't take the credit for how well the construction turned out, that was all him! Having...

I'm in the process of finishing our new dining room table and associated benches. I've had to remind myself several times how much I love my wife as I labor on the highly detailed table legs she picked out. I'm on coat 2 out of 6 of General Finishes Arm r Seal. Likely only going to put one more...

RM, I have this seat and I would not recommend it. I took the bait because of the backrest, and don't get me wrong it's nice when you get in that perfect position, but I wouldn't buy another one. It only has 2-3 adjustments for depth. The whole thing once assembled is like 4 feet long and quite...

I have noticed a huge uptick in Boykin popularity and breeding in the past few years of being around hunt tests. I am in the Boykin capital of the world here in the Carolinas. In my opinion, the popularity seems to be a pretty good thing for the breed as the intentions seem pure. I've seen...

FWIW: Duck Boss 16 LP is 450 LB.

RM, what you describe is exactly what I do. When I am reloading once fired hulls I just take them straight from the initial crimp to the final crimp. The biggest reason I state the OMV isn't designed for reloading once fired is because it has no station for depriming/resizing/repriming. I have...
