I bought a 20 Practical barrel and dies, etc. several years ago. Never loaded or shot it. Now that I am an old man, I really can't see up close to feel comfortable about making ammo for it. It there anyone who makes custom ammo. The ones I have contacted don't make 20 cal stuff.

I would check with Druid Hills Armory.  They do special orders , I believe .

A few years ago Druid Hill Armory would custom load ammo for customers.   Since 20 practical uses 223 Remington brass and commonly found 20 caliber bullets they might consider loading the ammunition for you.   You might offer to send them new brass and bullets for them to load.

Otherwise you might check locally by putting a notice on a board at a local gun shop or shooting club for someone to load 20 Practical.

Not trying to be too much of a smartass but have you thought about getting some glasses or an updated prescription?

Thanks but there's more to it than just glasses. it started with a torn retina.

The irony of that caliber name.

Ever consider selling it all and investing in a more mainstream caliber?  Since you've not touched it...

With the bad eyes, are you even able to shoot well enough to justify it?

I imagine American Custom Ammunition will load it for you.

I have a thousand rounds of 10mm Magnum and 9mm Win Mag loaded by them.  I haven’t fired a lot of it, but so far it seems to be good ammo.

Probably should see if I could sell it and buy .204 Ruger barrel.
I can still shoot pretty well. (Mostly about the enjoyment factor)
