    50 years ago when I started hunting as a youngster, plastic shot shells were a novelty, the "new thing", marketed toward waterfowl hunters.
    Everybody that made shotshells at the time made paper shells.

My dad used to have a box of Peter's 22LR, and in 2011 back when gander mtn was around I had bought a couple boxes of there exclusive Peter's brand 22LR in 50 round retro styled boxed from remington. They were exactly the same in look and feel. And the rimfire shell were stacked exactly like the old original Peter's box. Just like my father had in his day. The first gun he had ever bought was a Ruger 22 automatic pistol with a few boxes of Peter's brand cartridges for it. I miss my father dearly since his passing in August of 2022. I still find things around the house that pleasantly remind me of him.

Back in the 50's, when I was a kid learning to hunt and shoot, paper was standard, I still have tons of the old paper red hulls. Plastic hulls came to be and slowly the paper went out of vogue seems to me in the late 70's or 80's.

    Back in 74 when my grandad died, my mom inherited his double-barreled side-by-side shotgun in 16ga. As I recall it came with about a half box of shells that had red paper hulls. A number of years later I tested a couple and they still worked just fine. I'm 60 now and I believe my mom still has those shells and the shotgun. Thank you for the video. It was great to reminisce.

  • @independentthinker8930

    Paper hulls are where "high brass" came from, it wasn't for heavy loads, it was to help keep the paper from burning through for reloading. I remembered when they were the only thing out there.
    Moisture would make them swell and wouldn't chamber.
    I believe they were rolled and glued.

    In a few days I'll turn 68 and I recall when all shotgun shells were paper. And we clung to paper hulls until they disappeared from the shelves of our local stores. The reason we stuck with paper hulls was that the early plastic hulls were notorious for sticking in chambers and it was not unheard of for the brass to be pulled away from the plastic upon ejection/extraction which of course left the plastic hull stuck in the chamber(s). We learned to take our pocketknives with us so we could get the hulls out and get back to hunting. Not ALL plastic hulls stuck in the chambers but enough did that we despised the darn things. I don't know when the ammo folks figured out how to make plastic hulls that did not stick but those of us who had horded paper hulled shells did so until we ran out and had no choice but to switch to plastic. If I could find a few boxes of Peters in 16ga bird shot, I know which scattergun would see action this year. The double barreled I inherited from my Dad.

    Remington used to market their Peters Blue Magic plastic shells. I still have some of them. Federal Paper Champions were a great shell. Many times reloadable. I've only used them in my side by sides or over and unders, so I can't say how they would perform as reloads in an 1100 or any other semi-auto.
    I'm coming up on 70 years old. Been hunting 60+ years and reloading shotgun, rifle and handgun about 50 years. A lot of shooters don't know the difference between a "high brass" and "high base" shot shell. The Winchester AA compression form case is a low brass case that can be loaded to any power from light trap or skeet loads to the heaviest magnum charges. "High base" or "low base refers to the internal base wad of a shell which determines how much powder charge and what wad with what weight shot can be loaded in that case. The AA compression formed case and similar competition does not have a separate base wad. It's built into the case. There are plastic shells with either low or high brass that have either low or high base wads depending on if they are low, standard or high velocity or magnum charges. Just because a shell has high brass does not mean that is more powerful. That might have be true in days long ago but is no longer. That also goes along with the BS that a long barreled shotgun "shoots harder". Any smokeless powder will have its shot charge at its maximum velocity in the first 18 inches of a barrel. Black Powder, which is a class A explosive and has a burn rate much faster than any smokeless powder but produces much less pressure may take a little more barrel length to get its shot charge up to speed.
    I'm also going to have to call BS on Peters claim that paper cases have less recoil. If you passed basic high school physics you will know that the formula for energy is one half mass times velocity squared and that for every action there is an opposite and equal reaction. The speed of the shot charge and hot gases exiting the barrel pushing backwards on that shotgun are what determines recoil. Of course the modern gas operated or inertia operated auto loader are going to reduce felt recoil by using up some of the recoil energy. If you have a reloading manual that shows data for paper shells you will see that it takes a larger charge of a given powder with the same components and shot charge to achieve the same velocity as in a plastic case shell. That is because paper shells, at least in past years, do not seal in gases as well as plastic shells. Therefore they do not build up as much pressure. It's just like having blow by in an engine. You can't get maximum compression.
    As to these new paper shells if I were to find some I might buy a box to try just for fun. The first thing I would do is to pattern them in one of my 1100's, 11-48's or 11-87's before taking them to the field. You Benelli shooters will have to do your own testing. If they cost more or don't work any better what's the use? Just more marketing BS and hype. Happy hunting boys and girls!😄

All 12ga. Nothing like the smell of a recently fired paper shell. I remember when plastic shells came on the scene. They were pretty much a novelty thing. I started shooting shotgun at age 10 in 1959. My dad gave me my first shotgun, a Mossberg 20 ga bolt action with a 2 round box magazine so with 1 in the tube you have 3 available.

    Until well into the 60's, all shells were paper. When my dad and I reloaded them, there were also no plastic shot cups. Reloading was a very tedious process. Atop the powder, we placed a thin Nitro card to contain the flame. One or two thick Alcan cushion fiber wads made of reclaimed wool or paper were seated one at a time, then the shot charge was added. Loading data gave how many and how thick, like two 3/8". Nothing protected the shot from bore contact, but they gave good spreads for close range partridge hunting. We reloaded them at least three times. I still have a few boxes, including slugs and buckshot. Absolutely nothing new about paper shells! Actually, manufacturers never stopped using rolled paper base wads in plastic field loads.

    I got that Wheeler torque set you showed a few days ago. Thanks for sharing. I have bought 3 or 4 other torque sets and not been completely satisfied with them. This one is just what the doctor ordered!

    I can't count how many shotgun brass from paper shells I have dug up metal detecting...multiple hundreds at least.
    Cool to know they are still making them.

    Yupp over fifty five years ago we used them and loved there power and knock down for ducks n geese . They're wax impregnated paper and they reload beautifully. I've shot thousands of those and federal paper target loads. Competition trap is my game and i did very well. at big shoots. All over the east coast.

    WOW! It has been years since I seen a paper shell. My old 16 ga loved them.

    I remember paper shells being the norm. Winchester Super X was what my grandpa hunted with in bird shot and slugs.
    At least the paper breaks down out in the field where the plastic out lasts even the brass heads.

    In the late 60s early 70s. Shells were paper. I still have a few.

    Nice to see the paper back. Intresting to see how they compare to what we are now used to.
    Thanks for the awesome video and information and showing spent shell's as well.

    I am old. All shotgun shells, when I was young were paper or brass. Brass were the old ones. I didn't see a plastic shell, until I was a teenager.

      My German Shorthaired Pointer and I. Would knock on the Farmhouse doors. Carrying a shotgun . Most often the man of the house, was already busy. Most heard was ... Oh! Go ahead Sonny. Or you will find him near the barn.
      I don't remember ever getting turned down.
      In the cornfields of Illinois.
      My Buck was taught to point, by his mom. If I got more than two. I dropped off the rest.
      I almost always got more.
      Also usually a sweet snack and milk or tea. With an invitation for next year. From the man of the house. Pheasant season of my youth.

    You are making me feel old Who Tee. But my grandson also often asks me what it was like "back when everything was made of wood".

  • @rascal0175
    @rascal0175 Před rokem +1

    I remember when shotshells were paper or occasionally brass. Plastic was introduced for water fowlers and then became the rage. Paper was looked down on as inferior. Now here we go again.

    My uncle Walt even reloaded the paper shot shells. Antimony replaces lead now in some cases.

  • @mikek8089
    @mikek8089 Před rokem

    Back in the day I fired plenty of Peter's True Blues, along with Federal Champions and Winchester Super X loads. Actually reloaded the Federals about 5 - 6 times when I was shooting trap leagues. Those old paper hulls were pretty tough!

    Shot gun shells were made out of paper until the 1960s My dad still had some in the 80s.

    What they used when I started hunting. Use to cut partway through the paper all the way around to make it act like a slug

    I was shooting paper hulled cartridges from the USSR back in England as a youngster. They were red of course, but had a rolled top with a paper disc on the top. Not crimped.

    Great video! I JUST had about 8,000 rounds of ammo sent up here in AK. (It took quite a bit of logistics, but I got it done). It was part of what I had when I lived down south. In that shipment I have several hundred shotgun shells that I inherited from my grandfather. Still in good shape, they fire reliably, so many years later.
