Sorry to hijack, where are the palmetto's located? I am looking for a place to hunt some piggy's myself. Trying to do govt/public land until I can find a place to lease.

Thanks for any response and recommendations!!!!
The national wildlife refuges in the delta...they are all bow season now on public land. Private land in the delta where there are swamps. Hunt the drainage areas that are low with only patches of standing water with the palmetto's being on the high ground. Look for hog signs in the low areas, walk the low areas where the are only trees with little undergrowth. Also listen for them in the palmettos. If they are in the palmetto's and moving, you can hear them, especially if there is a big group or a couple of boars that get testy with each other.

Nothing loaded today. The other day I loaded 3 - 62 grain and 3 - 55 grain. I did size some casings today though. I found out that if they had a red primer not to try and size them. Stuck one of those cases. It was not fun getting the stuck case out either. Went through and separated out all the cases with red on the primer.



My homemade powder funnel.

Anyone have a ideal why the casings with the red on the primer stick? The others just resize effortlessly. These you can feel the resistance almost immediately and if you go ahead it will stick.

What is the headstamp?
Appears to be 5.56x45 and then a IK 09 on the headstamp.
Could be an expoxy sealer instead of paint. If baked it's like trying to remove weld. 09, guess that's production year, so 7 years to cure more.

The other day I went through some various hulls I have shot recently. Some factory and some of my loads with both fired & new hulls. I came up with 44 hulls of 5 different types. Yesterday I trimmed, deprimed and sized them. And then a quick trip through the SS pins. Today I loaded them and got this...................

These short shells are loaded with Lyman pellet slugs. A few days ago (before it turned cold) I cast 180 Lyman slugs from a mix of range lead & WWs. Pure lead slugs weigh 515gr and these weigh 505gr.

Tomorrow I will load some 00 buckshot short shells.

I did not load anything but I did prep about 300 .308 cases . My local supplier does not have any bullets on the shelf for me to load up and try out.
They did have some Berger 168gr vld for $50.00 for 100 kind of out of my price range.
