Another solid video and great info and sealing the primer and crimp is a most for waterfowl. I ran a few hundreds of those hulls this last waterfowl season. They look great but rust super fast plus are ultra acceptable to moisture problems fast. If your loading and shooting them all the next hunting day their fine but if they get wet and they will rust in a less then a week. They crimp nice on a lee press but you need at least 1/8” cork to keep the crimp with a solid feel with smaller shot if not the crimp will always push in because the plastic is thin. I would look for a better hull unless your throwing them away each hunt and not storing them. If anyone has tips to fix the rusting problem please help me out because I bought a ton of these gems!

Any steel based hull will rust but I keep mine in my pockets, in a 5 round shell holder on the stock, or in a shell belt. Keeps the weather off them when hunting in the woods. If we’re shooting at the range I keep them in the box and unless we’re rapid firing or shooting semi autoI normally don’t let me hulls touch the ground.
@BrockLowell
@BrockLowell Жыл бұрын
Unfortunately, during waterfowl hunting they will be ejecting from my semi auto in the water or boat or wet field normally. I use 25 round plastic slotted boxes that keep all water off them until you open it and it’s raining or a million other ways they can get wet waterfowl hunting. I do have sweet 20 round holder that’s like the one on your stock but was made to hang off waiter and it never dried out all season lol. No there nothing you can do to keep them dry. The funny think is the hulls from major waterfowl companies that all my buddies shoot would lay around the boat for months unless I picked them up and they didn’t rust! Just the cheap hulls did never seen a shot shell do that before. Btw in the type waterfowl hunting I do you in the water putting decoy out or picking them up there just is no way to stay dry. If I find a hull that can be bought cheap that don’t rush in waterfowl conditions I’ll let you know. If anyone has a brand of hulls that doesn’t rush please let me know!
@johnanderson186
@johnanderson186 Жыл бұрын
If you’re dealing with salty water then wash all your hulls in fresh clean water when hunt is over. Saltwater is terribly corrosive to steel. Also don’t store your wet hulls in a bucket or a plastic type bin, use a cardboard box. The cardboard will let the hulls dry better. The plastic won’t let em air out. You can also hit the hulls with WD40 or silicone lubricant before throwing in a cardboard box, won’t hurt the hull at all. The main key is getting salt off the hulls and getting them dry. Rust needs moisture and oxygen to proliferate and salt is a MAJOR catalyst for it.

Steel shot in a full choke isn’t a good idea. Buckshot and rifled/foster slugs are fine though. Steel BB’s are too big for .410 and won’t stack in a wad by 2’s. You’d end up with very few pellets given that the wad that needs to be used as very thick non tox wads.

There is a load that you may want to try. It uses cheddite hull/primers, 27 grain of HS-6, ranger elite wads, 1 1/8 oz 492 gr of steel shot going at 1200 fps at 10,800 psi you could Buffet up to 27.5 gr maybe 28 gr of powder to get 50 plus fps at still a safe psi. You can also use 3" hulls with a gas seal to get more fps.

to be honest, for hunting i dont see any reason not to use steel shot anyway. we're not shooting more than two or three rounds anyway, so we can fill a 3 1/2 inch shell with as much shot as we want if we want to keep the shot mass up. use a bit larger shot than you would with lead and each individual pellet can carry the same kind of energy. i dont really dig the idea of spreading all this lead into the soil. eventually it'll catch up to us.

@@ravener96 They made it mandatory to use steel shot for waterfoul hunting in the 1990's because they where worried about the birds eating the shot and getting lead poisoning. Honestly, the environmental impact of the lead shot is probably worse than the birds eating it but the plastic wads worry me too. I plan on loading up some shells with bismuth shot with fiber wads since bismuth won't scratch the barrel like steel would and the fiber wads will biodegrade quickly.

I've shot a bunch of these using #4-#2 steel for waterfowl. Over decoys... it's murder.... a very inexpensive steel shot load. Instead of the fiber cushion wad... I use 20gauge felt in the shot cup.. faster to load and no guesswork... but the fiber cushion is cheaper. If you have it or can find it... using Steel powder you can drive these loads upward of 1500fps with less pressure than the Longshot... but finding a supply of Steel powder isn't easy.

The last shot of 5, 23gn just popped. Barley spit it out. No barrel obstruction but lots of unburnt powder. It was raining and 10*C / 50*F out. My guess is bad primer/not hot enough.
