AAs for everything. Light 8s and Super Handicaps. Working through some odds and ends for practice. 3 cases of super targets and estates each left. About 4 cases of federal HOAs.
I have heard word that some distributors are getting enough stock for high volume. Hoping to get a pallet of my fav promo at some point.
This last week we tried the Fiocchi Trap Max from Shceels. They throw a nice pattern and hit hard. I was super impressed with how well they did. Very cost efficient, with reloadable hulls.
I'm retired for almost 10 years and on a fixed income so I only shoot my own reloads. I've accumulated enough once fired's so sourcing isn't an issue. Run a particular brand till they get crispy and split and change horses.
I’m still shooting Factory shells I bought after the last shortage In 2012. So from 2013-2016 my buddy & I put some cash aside every few months & bought Ammo & components. We finished most of the factory ammo earlier this year. However, we still have enough components to reload our papers, peters, Nitros & STS’s for a short time. We will run out of shot in the next couple of weeks but shot is the same cost now that it was back then. Next up will be primers. We have enough for this year but we will have to get more. We bought some flats of the RC shells but we’re looking forward to the return of Remington/Federal shells. I think we will start stocking up for the next shortage as components & ammo become available. Also just patterned some of the Heper shot. Wow! some really nice patterns!
I don’t like shooting steel base shells. I throw steel base hulls away if I shoot them. I reload brass base hulls and buy STS/Nitro/AA and Federal papers.
