LOAD OF THE WEEK 2009-09-25
Mister C: I shoot trap, some skeet,
Sporting Clays and soon will be taking on pheasants.
I am new to reloading and want to keep it simple until I am
more comfortable with complex loads.
Question! Is
there a wad that can handle, trap, skeet, Sporting Clays and bag the
wily pheasant? J.R.
This shall be a
pleasure… The BP lab has
created more than 100 loads nifty loads for the VP13 wad.
(You should be able to view the VP13 on-line.)
Loads running from 7/8 ounce lead to 1-1/4 ounce lead shot.
Just about every hull is represented.
The VP13 wad has a very clever sizing combined with robust
compression section - allowing for a great many highly productive
powder and shot combinations.
This selection is a small representation of the VP13 load
listing to date. When you
order the VP13 wad ask for the current VP13 load list.
And get some mica dust (a
half tea-spoon to bag) to ease wad insertion into roughed up,
multi-fired hulls.
