WhiskeyMinion 300 Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 Has anybody tried loading/cycling Winchester 000 buck yet? ??????????? I'm going to be picking one of these up if it will hold defensive rounds. Anybody tried any Buck/Slugs/PDx or any other HD rounds. I don't want to pick it up, only to find out it will only hold a few brands of game/target shot. Don't have much use for 30 rounds when I'm hunting grouse Quote Link to post Share on other sites

liberty -r- death 1,445 Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 Mine will be here in a couple days. I'll let you know if buck and winchester xd1 fit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
johnboatcat 24 Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Ran 30 rounds of Federal 410 Handgun 000 3" Buck through my drum this morning. Singles, double tap and 15 round fast fire without a problem. Very easy to load with the loader. Did not make the gun too heavy or bother the balance. Felt recoil seemed less than box mag.because of the weight. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WhiskeyMinion 300 Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 ^^^Good to hear I picked one up from my local mag guy today at the gun show. For $95 I figured I might as well Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WhiskeyMinion 300 Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 How much side to side play do you guys have? I have a ton of mag wobble in my SGL-41. (slight fore & aft and lots of side to side Haven't cycled it much yet as I didn't get the loading tool. Called ProMag today and they have one on the way Quote Link to post Share on other sites
johnboatcat 24 Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 Some side to side movement if I wiggle it by hand but it does not really wiggle when I handle the gun. Did not effect operation at all and I really didn't think about it again till you mentioned it. Thing is a b_tch to load without the loader. Very easy with it. I got mine from Promag also. It took about a week. I read somewhere that someone had added some plastic to the side to take up the wiggle. I'm just going to re-forget that it is there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
liberty -r- death 1,445 Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 Got mine in yesterday and the side wiggle is more than expected. Does not seem affect hand cycling. Not sure when I'll get to the range. Winter operations at the airport have me tied up right now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WhiskeyMinion 300 Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 Yeah, I have alot of side to side movement if I just tip the gun side to side (1/4"?) My Promag 12 round 12G drum was tight as heck and I needed to file the catch area. So far everything fits except 3" Golden Bear and # 4 Federal Hi-Brass. I'm currently out of Super X 000 right now Quote Link to post Share on other sites
liberty -r- death 1,445 Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 I fed Rio 3" fine, and Winchester Buck 3" fine, but Winchester PDX1 3" won't feed right. Seems it is just a bit too long. Gonna pick up some PDX! 2 1/2 and see how it does next. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sentinel SOSC 1 Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 Not any play fore and aft but, a lot of side play. Seems to be common in the SGL41. Anyone else experiencing this? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, just waiting on my loading assist tool so I can go run her through her paces and see if it affects function Quote Link to post Share on other sites
liberty -r- death 1,445 Posted February 2, 2012 Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 I picked up a 10 rnd box of the PDX1 in the 2 1/2" and they hand fed from the drum just fine. They may close enough in length to work. I hope to get out to the range next week to test how they cycle. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wow, that would be great ammo to fill a drum with, and wouldn't quite break the bank like the 3" stuff. Let us know how it goes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
