when all would you a gas seal in shotshell load? I know that you are using it here in this steel load but what about with slugs? Also do you know when you might be using a buffer other than this?
Blue dot aint really worth much unless you are from the south. It is pretty useless in the north here. It will work ok at 65 deg. Here is all I need to know 12ga 3" 47 grns of Alliant steel powder, Vp65 and one ounce of steel is without a doubt the hardest hitting load I ever made. I shoot turkeys with em!! I like them better than lead. They run abt 1700 fps and I put the 3 1/2 loader away. If you buy your shoot in bulk and shop around for that powder you will run under 10 bucks a box!!
How are you getting these made for 8 bucks a box? I've priced out each item through midway and cabela's and I can't price it for less than 15 bucks a box. Which is what winch xperts run. Where are you getting your supplies?
The recipe stays exactly the same regardless of the size shot you use... All you must ensure is that you use 1.25oz of shot... The pressure load is based on the weight the gas will have to push out the barrel, as long as the weight remains the same, the size of the pellets doesn't matter!!!
Just using Xperts hulls. These are last years emptys I picked up after each hunt. This shot recipe is not the same used by the factory to load Xperts 3.5"...
where did you buy the steel shot? i cant find any place where i can order steel shot online

Nice press. I use one for my 10 gauge shells. Alliant steel powder performs much better in cold temperatures than blue dot powder.

I used to load them for under 10 dollars a box but BPI now charges the same amount for 10 lbs of steel as 100lbs

can you please explain the main difference in steel and lead shot? Why do you need the extra supplies?

Which way does the BPGS go in the shell?

The concave side of the seal goes in first, resting against the powder, leaving the wad to sit securely on the ridged side.
