I don’t chase people around the internet just to argue.
I have very carefully and very precisely, reloaded 10’s of thousands of shotgun cartridges.
For modern fluid steel barrels:
I read the powder manufacturer’s recipes. I follow them.
I rely on the data provided from the powder manufacturer to be accurate.
If they are releasing inaccurate information to the general public, they are assuming all of the risk for the consequences.
You can do this because:
there are very few variables in the cartridge remanufacturing equation.
Not every variable is of the same consequence.
The big four elements are the dominant terms in the equation, the rest are essentially noise.
For the tiny quantity most sxs owners fire, I think they are better served buying from RST.
Over time, it became clear that anything connected to a trap shooting site was unsafe garbage.
Why people do what they do continues to be a sad mystery to me.
Probably one of the great consequences with very positive results, was the consolidation of the powder industry, and the Covid manufacturing disruption on the plastic side.
3/4 of all the crap out there that people were dangerously assembling is gone from the market.
All that orphan reloading debris that people hoard can go right into the dumpster.
So the remaining items Are much safer to use, because there are fewer combinations of stupidity available.
