Dale I believe your right for the most part. 2 week ends a go I hit a gunshow and scored a 25 lb bag of WW # 4 chilled shot for 35 bucks. I find odd bags of wads here and there, and powder is where you find it. Same show I scored (3 ) 8 oz containers of Alcan AL 5 for $4 ea. Big thing in my book is load data for a lot of these older components. In the op's case he sounds like he would be better off buying new shells as his 1 oz a 1300 fps is unrealistic...mb
