Cayugad:

Thanks for the tips. I do plan on switching back to the shockwaves, which is what I always shot until this year. A guy at the range was swearing by Powerbelts and how easy they were to load so I tried them. Also, good tip on the breech. I don't know what I was thinking and tweaked mine so tight last time I cleaned it that I broke the 209 nipple. Do you separate the stock from the barrel everytime you clean it?

By the way, I shoot the 22" barrel. I'm only 5'4" and the 26" wasn't comfortable to swing and shoulder.
