It's great practice ammo, I use a lot of it. $2.50 for a box of 10 at the local gun show. Goes bang every time, very reliable. A little dirty and the unplated shot leaves lots of lead deposits. The cases are slightly longer than 2 3/4" due to a rolled lip on the top, so you may not get full capacity to fit in your gun. The pattern is horrible (out of my 20" cylinder bore), I would not try to use these at any kind of distance.

I've got a bunch of it that I got cheap.
It has yet to pattern the best in any shotgun/choke combo I've tried, but it hasn't patterned the worst either. It does pattern toward the large side, though. From what I've seen, it tends to shoot better patterns through Cylinder or Imp Cyl choke tube than Mod. That's OK, but it's the opposite of most buckshot I've tried. The oddest thing about it to me is the smell. It smells like something burning. I've heard, but can't verify it, that the overpowder wads are made of compressed horsehair. If that's true, it would explain the smell. |
