Making Flitecontrol buckshot Wads

[@theshotgunscientists]

Dude I’ve actually been doing this exact same thing with csd and tps wads in 16 and 10 gauge for a while. I thought I was the only one to ever think of this. Even down to the shell template for the fins. That’s awesome.

[@vdog4799]

I was just wonder about that. I stumbled across this guy by accident. I'm glad I did. Did you do any videos for that wad modification and test?

[@theshotgunscientists]

@@vdog4799 Yes it’s one of my early videos. I need to revisit it.

[@vdog4799]

@@theshotgunscientists im not sure how to find that. Ill do my best here

I've never even seen a paper shell before. Thanks for the tip.

[@attaway9able]

Can’t wait to see the patterns for those wads I’ve made a few myself just haven’t been to the range yet.!

[@maxxbear5014]

No I haven’t got out either little busy at work right now

[@dieselten01]

That is a brilliant idea to make the wads! How do they pattern? Can we see some 25 and 40 yard patterns? Thanks

[@michaelbarrett2346]

Thank you for researching this. Very interesting

[@vdog4799]

I like that bottle under the deprime station.

[@jamespollard1670]

I've never loaded a paper hull before . So I guess I learned something .

[@jungleno.]

Cut an appropriate size plastic drinking straw into short sections and slip one over the #57 primer. There...the primer will now fit snugly into your primer pocket. You're welcome.

[@maxxbear5014]

You’re a genius thank I really appreciate it I have a bunch of old 57 primers I’ve been wanting to use thanks again

[@MooreLeather]

What are the sizes of the three cut outs in the hull you use to mark out the wad 'cuts'? Any range tests of these yet?

[@maxxbear5014]

They where about 5/16” wide X 9/16”high. I did shoot them and they grouped tighter than standard buckshot but I don’t have any of the factory loading‘s to compare them to.

[@MooreLeather]

@@maxxbear5014 Thanks for the FAST reply! I will ask a mate that I know who has some of the Federal ammo to loan me a pack of five so I can get more component data from them then reassemble them for him. Quite impossible to find here in England. I may experiment with the three slot positions too. Thanks again!

[@johnwalters7415]

I have a question someone give me a bag of tips wads from ballistic products that ate unevenly cut can I still use these?

[@maxxbear5014]

I have no idea

😊 no school like old school .

What's the part # on those BPI wads? Thanks.

[@maxxbear5014]

I’m sorry I don’t know the part number they are just un-slit wads.

Smooth cone crimp starter works a lot better.

[@maxxbear5014]

I never heard of a smooth cone crimp starter. I’ll have to look it up. Thanks for the advice.

[@saradolphin3242]

Nice Going!

[@maxxbear5014]

Thanks!

[@HobbiesHobo]

Funny how fast we can forget some of the details.

[@maxxbear5014]

I did forget a lot but it’s coming back to me just really didn’t do much reloading for about a year and a half

[@EdwardFredericks-yt7tj]

Plastic has a “ memory” . Paper has NO memory!

[@maxxbear5014]

Maybe I should’ve said previous folds that have already deformed the paper and would be suited to be put back to their original folds
