Turnbull is not the problem, nor is any other gunsmith or supplier service, for us it's our Governments!
I have a distributor friend who had a shipment of wads held up at the border for months because the wads were classed as ammunition by someone in the Border service!
Yet he can order stuff like primers with no issue from Europe.
It has to do with a stupid accord signed between Canada and the U.S.
The amount of paperwork required to take a firearm down to the U.S. is astronomical , and that is if you are going down with it!
However , I digress, heading out today with another batch of loads to test! :>)

Try Chris Dawe I believe he's in Newfoundland. You can got to the Parker Gun Collectors Assoc and register as a forum user and find him that way as well.

I know Chris and have spoken with him several times but he is clear across the country and I have gunsmiths who do excellent work right here on Alberta :>)
Oh yes I'm already s member of the Parker forum, that is a Parker 16 I am holding in my Avatar!
