Aguila mini shells

[adamsredlines]

I may have that backwards, I cant remember now...but it had something to do with the shell elevator/lifter when cycling the action.

My 590 holds 9 and my Tac 14 holds 6, so I'm sticking with full length shells.

Great in an over and under though.

Lol, why?

Does it increase the capacity of those too?

Less recoil when teaching my Niece and Nephew.

I'm not a fan of the price.

Great for teaching young uns and inexperienced shooters.

Found a vid and decided to make my own. Use the in a SxS for Cowboy Action shoots and teaching grandson.

Took a box of Rio 1oz game loads. A piece of 34" PVC cut to 1 3/4".

"Load" shell into PVC. Using utility knife, cut hull carefully. Dump shot out.
Pull was and cut bottom cushion off.
Replace wad, push it down snug against powder.
Put 1/2oz of shot in wad.
Place a 20ga cardboard wad on top of shot. I use a 5/8" hole punch and old cereal box to cut wads.

Put a fine bead of Elmer's white school glue around wad and hull.

Equals a 28ga skeet load patterns well and very little recoil. Plus you have enough shot to load another box.

Have reloaded the hills 10 times without a problem. Reload with 14gr Red Dot and Win 209 and AA 1oz wad

This is the only reason I would buy one of those OpSol Adapters and use these things; for teaching young'uns and newbs to shoot a shotgun without the recoil of a full load scaring them away. Let them shoot some of these; then if they like, move on up to a light 2 3/4" target load and so on.

Hmmm... do these have less shot, a hotter powder, or both?

The Aguila mini buck have 7 pellets of #4 buck and 4 pellets of #1 buck 1,200 fps...In close quarters they`ll do the job. A lot folks with the Shockwave like the lower recoil and increased capicity...Between the cost and having to depend on a removable adapter in order function properly, I`ll stick with a full load of buckshot!
