Thanks, if the hot glue dosen't work for me I'll check them out. I can buy 250 rds of # 8 2 3/4" 12 ga for around $65 and make then into glue slugs for a tolal cost of less than .30 cents a rd.. If your shooting factory slugs it would cost over $200, so Im gonna keep trying until I get it right.

I second your note

There is a couple of vid's on you tube showing a model 97 being slam fired (verry cool). A chinese company call Norinco makes a reproduction but can no longer import. Every once in a while one turns up on GB but the price gets bidded up fast.

My only reserve with using wax is if it gets warm and starts to melt. I don't want the slug sliding out of the wad and getting logded half way down the barrel. From what I can find online, glue slugs seem to perform just as welll as the wax but no heat related issues.

Good luck with your new gun, Be safe and have fun. I just hope you can find some ammo so you can shoot it.........lol.

I folllowed instructions on a a youtube posting and made some slugs using Elmers "school glue" and I wouldn't recomend this method. It's been almost a week and they have not fully dried. Im gonna try using hot glue and see how that works.

If your thinking about a O/U check out the Stoger Condor. I picked one up at one of the big chain stores a few years back and I love it. You can find one for right around $400 (less if you wait for a sale). It's a great gun for the money.

I like to shoot but Im no expert, what do you mean when you say horror storys

Why dosen't anyone like aluminum case ammo? Is it because you can't reload it? Dose it jam frequently? I have a Kahr pistol and hi point carbine, will aluminum case ammo cycle?

I agree it should be loaded. But hot?

Most criminals are not smart enough to know what you know, and if im not mistaken once you rack a round the gun is ready to go.

Nothing scares the crap out of a criminal like the sound of a pump shotgun rackin a round

I found a Lee hand loader kit used online, the guy wants $30. Do you guys think it's worth it or should I look into the Lee load all?

Nice, Thanks everyone for the info.

Thanks, Just bookmarked the site

Thanks for the info I'll check it out. Fishnut I just might take you up on your offer. Thank you verry generous.

Do you know of any places in the Central Jersey area that offer 5 stand? I would like to try it. Oh, and thatks for the info.

Keep me in mind for he next class. I would like to learn how to reload without blowing myself up.

Have you ever shot 5 Stand? How does it work? I've seen it magazines but never in person.

Thanks for the info. I live 20 min away and have never been there. I think Im gonna check this place out this weekend.

Im not sure what 5 stand is either, I see it in magazines but never in person. It looks like fun.

Do they have any shotgun ranges like trap, skeet, or 5 stand?

Where can I find info on membership?

Im thinking about getting into reloading 12 ga shot shells. I saw a vidio on youtube and the guy was using a Lee Hand loader kit. It looked easy to use. I tried to find one online but can't. Do they still make them? Is there a store in Central Jersey where I can but one?
