I have a Steven's 16guage pump shot gun. I just purchased some less lethal home defender rubber slugs and rubber buckshots...just wanted to know on the pack it says "reloadable".... but what all us needed to reload the less lethal ammo correctly? Do I need powder and etc (not sure) or can I just reload my shell and fire??? THANKS FOR YOUR HONESTY!
I can't speak specifically for what you are referencing, but you would definitely have to have a means to clean up your hull and crimp it. You would also have to have whatever you plane on loading it with and powder. You would need an actual load that has been developed and tested with the correct supplies to ensure you are not injured. I would not recommend just throwing something together. I would most definitely reload a tested load.
I see lil gun in the video, can you possibly share what grain amount for TSS duck loads? Why is this stuff not public knowledge so that people can be safe & work together to educate one another?
You get the load data from who you purchase the TSS from. They worked hard to develop the load and don't want people copying or sharing their load data that didn't purchase from them.
Its pretty simple to reload TSS. You need a scale ($30 for a cheap one), Some sort of vice to hold shell in ($20), roll crimper ($30), and some form of dipper ($6), Drill, and possibly some other odds and ends to make it easier. The components are not that expensive besides the shot itself. Depending on which recipe you load you will need hulls (100 per pack for around $12), powder ($30), nitro card ($15 for 1k), wad ($20ish for 250), buffer ($8ish), shot,($46/lb) and over shot card($10 for 1k). You can load 9.84 shells per pound loading 1 5/8oz of 9 shot. You will have 0.12 in a hull, 0.13 in powder, 0.02 in nitro card, 0.08 in wad, 0.02 in buffer, 4.67 in shot, and 0.01 for OSC=5.05 per shell. This isn't including the other things you need to get started, which as you can see isn't a lot. All that can be bought for under $100. A shell you are buying is going to be closer to $8-$10 per shell. Half the time you can't find them. Not to mention, if they are different lot numbers they have been prone to shoot differently. Plus it is just fun reloading these things and killing birds with YOUR load.
@@h2soutdoorsla543 Awesome! Thank you for the time it took to detail this out for me. It appears to be honest and accurate. (which is hard to come by these days). I reload rifle and pistol and I would love to give this a try.
@@ridgerunner6211 That looks like one of my older models that he's using in this video. I make a newer version that cuts all 4 slits at one time. Check out the video > th-cam.com/video/oY_KLwf_qzM/w-d-xo.html
How do i get in contact with Ronnie Savage to buy shot and get recipe?
I am interested in the hull trimmer and where I can get one?
Can anyone share what powder, grain qty, wad type, shot amount to use with TSS #9 shot for 12ga 2-3/4” duck loads?
That's not something that is readily given out. People spend a lot of time and money testing loads. Most people that sale the shot have load data.

@@tungstenman2822 I'm interested in TSS
Can you put the info of the person you buy your shot from.
Would be willing to pay for somebody's recipe for TSS I do a lot of goose hunting # 7 shot 12 gauge
Get with someone who sells the shot. They should be able to provide you with a recipe.
So what's your cost per shell

How much does it cost you to reload each shell? Thanks
Average reloaded shell for me is 5-8 bucks pending on where u get ur shot form.
@@joshuadcarmack OK thanks for the reply so I'm actually getting a deal I'm buying 50 shells #7's for $200 shipped to my house
Once you get all the components to reload, you are around $5 per shell.
