That looks nice....She's not bad too :lol:

Surprised though, she states she only owns one Shotgun. - OK it's a Perazzi - But I've seen them break too.

A bit dear!! Even with the latest price increase I can get 1000 Clever 28G Crts for £150.

BTW - A 28G Cartidge contains about 20 Grains of powder. Times a 1000 equals 20,000 Grains which is nearly 3Lbs.

Factor in the cost of primers, cases, shot and wads and you wonder why it is so dear to buy powder on its own.

If the price of powder keeps rising, it may eventually be cheaper to buy Shotgun Cartridges just for the powder. I'm sure if you assumed it equivalent to Red Dot, you could work up a good load for 38Spec.

At your own risk if you do.... :D

We worked that out some years ago 25pdr. The lead is then a bonus that can be cast into bullets or weighed in for scrap.

There’s no feeling in the world like pulling a trigger.

That might be true for a girlie sort. But not a red blooded bloke, even an old one! But then again Perhaps she hasn't met the right one yet ;)
