I've heard the 3/5 mix is very good.

A little to good, in my opinion lol.

I haven't any fracturing with Boss, I shoot 5 or 6's when out west. I did get fracturing with Kent bismuth.

I have only gotten a couple duds with Boss. But the most disturbing thing to me was when fire shot out of my ejector.I caught it on video I will have to look for it.

They have a new shot at Boss that they hope to sell by fall in 3, 4, and 5 size. Allegedly more uniform, hard, so penetration is similar to bismuth. I have to believe it is some mix of steel, nickel, and/or copper (2 or 3 of those). But that is just a guess.

Balistic products out of Minnesota sells good bismuth its been very round. Im not sure if it being coated with tin is actually going to reduce fractured pellets but time will tell.

Right now I have less than a pound of 3's. I tried making a 3/5 duplex which I haven't patterned. If you drop down to a #4 in a 3" hull 1 3/8 oz. I could hook you up lol. Also have enough 3" B 1 1/2 to share

I would be more than happy to test 5 cases of #4 and report back.
