I cut one of these open , Shot weight in it was 33 grams-or 510 grains. With a total of 184 pellets. I plan to check a couple of others and put it to paper at some point in the future.
This is all silly . I wouldn’t put my Boykin in the water with my peake or my peake in the water with my last peake. I hunt what I hunt because I like to look at and be around them. And to some extent because they work for me on pheasants.
It dropped the tax so ended up being 370. You can’t beat that. Should be a little better in the wind. And the recoil should be better not pushing 1450 out of a 6.25 lb gun.
Ok all the bismuth aficionados. I came across some Kent 2 3/4” 1 1/4 #4’s at 380 a case . With tax free shipping and a 10 dollar discount code it come out to 401.xx.
Is that a good deal,? bad deal? Is Kent a poor shell?
I’ve fallen asleep to a lot of Eric Forester videos. It’s like watching golf on a Sunday afternoon, it’s soothing.
The couple times I felt like I needed to say something while I was wearing a camera it sounded forced and poorly scripted. Voice overs seem like they would be too much work.
I don’t really care about who shoots what as long as I don’t have to hear about it.
One year the partner of my mil’s son came along and shot a couple of limits. Which is fine but his dad carried on for a year about it Ely this and Ely that.
The next year I did it in the first field. Luck of the...
Yep It's crazy! Fiocci bought them and they are manufactured in the us now and you still can't find them. I'm hoping maybe? a range can get ahold of them.
There’s groups of guys that hunt a field like a well oiled machine and then there’s the other 90 percent who out there pissing in the wind.
If there are few birds they are not going to kill anything I’d argue a group of two of three guys will kill as many if not more.
I don’t think payload is a problem in a 12 guage. If I could find something an 1 1/8 at 1450 I’d buy it and shoot it no problem . Everything I’ve seen at that weight is souped up to like 1600 Speed kills! lol
No doubt if I was shooting anything other than a 12 gauge I’d be looking at bismuth
Regret would have been a better word. Man I shouldn’t have bought that or sold that, or cut that.
It’s on the way. I haven’t bought gun in a while and nothing that nice. I’m excited to see it and get out and shoot it. Thanks guys.
