Any ideas ,if you see some ,pls PM me .
Thanks

What is the smallest steel you can buy ?

[Faststeel]

I have some Kent number 7 steel, but it is in a target shell. FS

The heaviest 7.5 lead loads I know of are 1 1/8 oz at 1300 fps. AA Super Sports or Rem STS, Fed and Kent make them too. These are all target loads but it doesn't really mater what the box says.

1 1/4 oz IIRC

Very interesting.

Who loaded those shells for Woodwards?

[Winch101]

On the box it says ....Loaded for Woodwards in Canada
By one of the worlds largest small arms ammunition manufacturers .

Also they are 2 5/8 " ....

So Dominion ( CIL ) Google says

This is an interesting site

When I started shotgunning , 10 maybe ......3 generations of familly
In Delta marsh ......I saw a lot of equipment I'd love to have now .

These were made 1958-1961 .....not ancient. 55 plus years old .
