But you watch.....if "weather" cooperates this year, you will see numbers go way back up. My farm in East Texas was loaded right before that big freeze after season. We never got those hard freezes up North last year that really pushes birds down. Until February.

I've been thinking of reloading as well. If you don't mind, which press are you running and where are you getting your components from?
Thanks

Not sure of site off top of my head but hulls is hardest part in recipe to find. Hoping to do 3” #3 or #4. According to my math $19 ish for a 10lb sack of shot equaled 128 loaded at 1.25oz. I’ve got two presses already. So may order a couple sacks of shot and wads to tinker with it. Reading you can do roughly $9.50-10 for 25 shells. Not too sure if that’s accurate but if I have a ton of components I don’t have to panic buy haha

Can’t dose out the medicine without any pills. You’ll kill em dead. May have to give em an extra pill on the way down lol!

Will be flying up to Mass on a seaduck hunt in January. Should I bring a cooler and just fly the meat/birds home with me? Or ship it via ups overnight?
I figure either way will be expensive.
