I inherited a TON of field loads when my FIL passed. For decades apparently, he would buy a box each time when he went hunting, and accumulated a LOT of extra shells.
Most are either #6 or #7 1/2. Was thinking of cutting them down and using a roll crimper to make then into shorties, reducing the powder a bit, and replacing the wads to make them better defense loads.
I have shot-cards to cover it if I use shot, and am thinking about the RSS sabot that handles .50 pistol bullets.
Any hints, ideas, suggestions, dirty remarks? All are appreciated.
