    You depart with mighty boasts, but you come back having done little.
    Sounds like a typical hunting trip !

    Yeah, I've kept all my 3" steel Berdan primed ones in the faint hope I may one day figure out how to re-prime them
    I know a lot but it seems less every day...

    Drill the primer pockets out in the lathe to fit a 209 primer

    When you say new, do you mean new to you or do you have a link to buy one

    closest I've seen is one from sulun arms which aren't in the country yet, delta mike said closer to the end of the year they'd have them in though, (also a 12g with the alofs system also from sulun)

    Did you have any more info on that, a specific model to ask for or a price?
    I'll be going into town in a week or so I may enquire with my local H&F

    Thanks for the model number,
    is there anything online about it in NZ or is it something that only would be seen on a dealer stocklist?
    with a google only the U/O models show up, apart from one SxS variant for 150 quid in the UK


    Edit: Found It for sale at broncos,
    A link for anyone else interested

    +1 on the 410 brass. I would definitely be keen when I pick up a .410 of my own.

    So I finaly got around to pushing the vintage SBS chamber out to 3" so I can run my full length brass loads in it. I spent a bit of time dialing in various payloads to see what it shot best with.

    I gave up pretty quick on the 1oz loads as the patterns with both cork and felt wads were sporadic and showed a lot of shot clumping together in the ugly patten.
    At 30y some didn't even penitrate the jib board I was shooting at.

    Things tightened up nicely with 3/4oz and 11/16oz #5 loads in the plastic stretch wads
