    Flints Back IN Stock

    My experience with IMA was excellent for 5 lbs of flints. Tons of usable and the larger dull ones just knap them down to smaller usable.

    DIY caps

    100s of caps without problem. If using beer can material the printing has to be inside the cap for the compound to bond, i suspect that is where people go wrong. Using brass .005 stock also works fine. I use the 4 chemicals matching their directions with no issues at all

    I have found the kit materials and a few drops of acetone make perfect caps that don't fall apart for me even on a 1851navy

    Intuitive shooting

    I shoot a lot of shotgun sporting clays ~200 shots a week, every week at minimum If you slow your swing to focus on a front bead you will most likely miss. Both eyes should be tracking your target and you "sling" lead across the target in its flight path. You can't make that delivery...

    manure shoot with what you'll get. Mixed sizes, lots are dull and need sharpened up. I found value in them.

    Pedersoli recommends TSS without shot cup?

    Food for thought.... manufacturers are in the business of selling new stuff, not necessarily keeping the stuff you bought lasting longer.

    Plastic shot wads

    Try a smaller powder charge, that should not blow out the center of your pattern

    Contaminated lead?

    Any whiskers forming on the bullets? Sometimes you can get a splash of lead on the mold block face and it won't close all the way
