Found it! Load No. 26 where the TUWGL12 is listed on the update page.
All of the components are currently available. Fantastic!

I’d like to see the mold and some boolets from it.

Well, how did the pressure tests go? We’re the results what you expected?

Good morning Ms MaryB
When you say older are we talking carburetor old? I assume it’s got fuel infection since you mentioned an electric fuel pump vs a mechanical fuel pump. Do you know about what...

Further testing revealed a boolet sized to 0.358” will chamber. I went back to the original 1.2 grain charge but reduced the oal down to 1.110” AND switched to RMI brass I purchased new for this...

This is my current favorite until someone gets me a Vihtavuori one.

I’m not too worried about lead exposure. According to Richard Lee dust from dry tumbling brass is the biggest...

Curious why you picked slug loads instead of buckshot? Do you plan to have buckshot in the tube after the slug? Chances are good you could get a quick second shot off. Plus the hogs I saw rooting on...

I got a click on a wild boar because of tight 30 Herrett brass one time. I don’t remember if I closed the action harder or put in a different cartridge. Fortunately I was in a box blind and didn’t...

I just run 223 brass into the full length die for TCU and enjoy!

Herrett got sized. Cut close to length with a little plastic tubing cutter. Then finish to exact length on a Lyman trimmer. Then...

326073Well the lodged boolet pushed out easily with a cleaning rod!

Test three was the 0.17cc Lee dipper used normally as a dipper. Digital scale read 1.5 grains for four charges and 1.4 grains...

Well unfortunately attempt two stuck a bullet in the barrel!

I went down to 1.0 grains of N310 and seated deeper to 1.145” in an attempt to increase the chamber pressure. The first shot was 379...

This is what 1.2 grains of N310 looks like to those of you who aren’t familiar with it.

They fit and feed in an ETS magazine.

Yes there is just a smidge of bulge in the Winchester brass shown in the photo.

I’ll report back after trying a few other brands of brass.

I started at 1.160” overall length. These chamber fine in the only barrel I tried. Probably a BCA barrel iirc.

For those of you who are interested in subsonic loads, I thought I would share.

I’m using the Lee C358-200-RF mold. Boolets are sized to 0.356” without a gas check. 1.2 grains of Vihtavuori N310...

My father is to the point where he is too difficult to get in and out of a vehicle. We rented a van with a wheelchair ramp to get him to his last doctors appointment.

Started looking to purchase...

I like these over a good dose of Varget or N540.

Sounds fun while it lasts!
Once it’s gone, it’s gone.

I’ve got a thread started wanting to make my own shot. What state are you in?
Thanks

Send me your credit card number and I’ll give you a full report with twenty seven eight-by-ten color glossy photographs with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one explaining what...

Brilliant!
Why isn’t this in bold print in all the shotgun reloading manuals??

I’ve got a pile of the MG42 wads from BPI and I like them since the pedals are longer than the WAA12R wads. Plus they seem to fit straight wall hulls better without powder migration. Does anyone use...

I’ve heard wasps are the #1 predator of brown recluse and black widow spiders. If they aren’t too close to the doors I leave them alone for the most part.

Still sounds like useful load data. I...

I’ve got the Lee 18 cavity mold for 000 buckshot. I believe it’s 0.360” diameter. They don’t fit in a shot cup.

I was thinking about a 00 or maybe even a 0 mold since Lee is making both now.
