Having decided that I will be using lead I did some follow up work.

Had a frustrating day trying to buy 2 1/2 inch shotgun shells. Could not find any in a few shops I tried in Brisbane so contacted Beretta Australia and yes they have however I would have to buy via a dealer - understand that. Back to one of the gunshops and yes can get however you have to buy a pallet of them!! What! - so back to Beretta asking about the pallet deal and because the gunshop does not buy ammo from Beretta they could not be included in a normal ammo shipment so would be a special consignment with just my pallet of shells. 25,000 shells I think the guy said.

Learning now, so asked the Beretta guy to tell me who in Brisbane they regularly ship to. Turns out that noboby in Brisbane buys on a regular basis except the Brisbane Gun Club (ISSF, DTL, and Skeet). Some of their ISSF guys like to shoot quality ammo it turns out. Getting somewhere except that they are out of stock of the normal stuff that the BGC buy.

Looks as if I will be digging out Dad's old shotshell press and getting that article from Guns & Game where they explained how to modify a press to produce 2 1/2 shells. Any ideas of where to get hulls?

Frustrating but still fun.

Rick
