love my 650, I use a 600 jr to size and deprime, then move on to the 650, sometimes it does not seat primers deep enough so I use the 600jr to finish seating them. Mine are for 16 ga

I own and shoot only 16ga, and reload for it, my Browning Citori is my go to trap gun

here is mine along with a .38 southpaw. Owned several bulldogs over the years, never should have sold them

I reload, too expensive to buy off the shelf. I shoot pasture trap with a bunch of guys for money and load up a mixture of #7.5,8 and 9 shot, at my age I need an advantage

I started trap only since I retired, wore out a Ithaca pump and marlin o/u, they were both older guns and could not handle the round count, ended up buying a browning citori, it will out last me, btw, all are 16 ga

Its marked very lightly with the circle P on the wrist and the square DOD mark on the left side, under the butt plate is an X stamp, but no one used that so don`t know who made it

thanks, any idea what its worth?

got this for christmas, anyone know what it is, never seen a butt plate like it, I think bolt action from the notch and assume military

took a closer look, another difference is the first one has case hardened hammer and trigger while the newer one is blued

50 years ago I bought a High Standard Marshal new in box from the local hardware store, $89, my first handgun, its the top one in the pic. I have put over 5k rds thru it and is my go to gun to kill rats around my chicken coop. I have been looking for another one for the last 30 yrs and found one...

I shoot 16 ga so I have to reload, started with the lee, worked great, then a mec600 jr and now a 650, I still use the jr to size and deprime then load with the 650. I shoot pasture trap with a bunch of guys and like to load shells with a mix of 7.5, 8 and 9 shot, gives me a little advantage

I really like my New Frontier 22, I only have the mag cylinder and its great for dispatching raccoons around my chicken coop, I also have a peacemaker 22 with both cylinders, keep it loaded with 22 fed shot shells for rats

thanks, finally shot it, tried 50, 60, and 70, the 70 gave me a kick like a reg shotgun and the best pattern, going to try 65 next time out.

the gun is a 1863 springfield rifled musket converted to 16 ga, only want to know max load so I don`t get close to it

I want to shoot 1 oz of #8 shot out of my old muzzle loader shotgun, what is a safe black powder starting load? What would be a safe max load?
