Rick did you try retapping the stripped hole? Just a thought. Glad you got it shooting well. I was able to get some BH209 at Sportsman's Warehouse. I just put an order in and they notified me when it was ready to pick up. My problem is that I'm running low on 209 primers. I have several hundred shotshells loaded and I can't remember the last time I shot a shotgun. I just may have to start disassembling them and get the primers out! Just have to figure out how to do it safely without damaging them.
