doublegunshop.com - home Forums General Discussion DoubleGun BBS @ doublegunshop.com 16ga Paper hulls?

The account is set up. I need two or three people willing to be overseers for this account. This is what I need from them. #1 a valid email account address.
#2 a password to enter into the account so that they can access the account to view transactions only.
If everyone would feel better about having two people having access to the money please let me know. I can set this up also.
Please do not volunteer your services and then send the needed info over the net. Volunteer first and then I will send you my phone number and we can do it that way. If anyone has any other concerns let me know.
The account should be ready to accept money by Friday.

I am interested in 1000 paper cases also. I will pay with paypal when instucted as to where and how much.

I still need some guidance on how everyone would like the PayPal account set up. I also need 2 volunteers.

Any up date on the progress of this project?

What the hey, I'll take 1000

Hello all-

I've been working a lot lately with the new job and haven't really had much time to spend socializing or playing with my old doubles.

I have though had a bit of a conversation with Mike Harrell on the topic of working out a paypal account for this bulk order.

Paypal takes a percentage of each transaction with a commercial account.
Since this isn't a commercial venture, in that no one here is looking to make any money on this venture we've been discussing having a personal account set up for this -- an account that paypal won't charge him for.

The only difference that this makes to us here is that with a personal account, there isn't any kind of provision for oversight. What I mean there is that it'd be a one-man account and no one else would have privlege to peek into it and monitor the works.

Mike handles deals with integrity and I'm fine with having him set up a personal account for this purpose, as long as it's fine with him and fine with everyone else.

Still we're not in any kind of time crunch here, we have months before an order would have to make it into the factory's hands. They won't start production on our request until February.

We have lots of time still to come to a color and length.

At this point I really don't care about the color at all, make them in glitter pink for all I care.
I'll be able to handle my end of making sure that my 16b cartridges stay out of any chamber other than a 16b chamber.

I'm not to keen on the 'Sweet 16' print, my sense is that the 'Sweet 16' name has been run well into the ground by numerous other production efforts and I'd prefer something simple like 16b or 16ga in an interesting print type -- but really, I'll just shoot them regardless of what's printed on them.

I think we came to a good max length number too, as paper hulls are very simple to trim to any length and for my own efforts, I'll have to be trimming them to at least three different lengths anyway.

Also, for what it's worth, it looks like we easily have enough interest to go ahead with a 50k order. If we end up with deposits for more than 50k hulls, we'll just ask for more than 50k.
I'm sure the factory will supply us with as many as we want once we hit the 50k minimum.

Tinker, you indicate "we came to a good maximum length number too...." I scanned back over some of the recent posts, but don't see what that number was.

2 3/4" was the length settled on since no one wanted 3" and cutting was easy enough.

2 3/4" sounds good . This will be fun. I've always wanted to delve into some roll crimping and make up hunting loads that have the nice little overshot cards with the shot size printed on top.

I don't think they ever made a 3" chamber for 16ga. correct me if I am wrong.
