Bickel has been loading it for his vintage guns and has pronounced it deadly at all ranges. This is a man that can kill the high ones on a regular basis, to me his word is law when it comes to this sort of thing.

#5 Nice Shot has become my standard waterfowl load for 12ga and 16ga guns. As my supply of bismuth dwindles, I will no doubt use it in every gauge and shot size depending on size of game where no-tox is required. Simpler to load than bismuth and not as brittle IMO. Standard charge bars throw a little less Nice Shot than lead so pressure increases may be somewhat overstated.
Performs very well for me. |

I been using 4's 5's an 6's in Nice Shot with good results for a few years, just noticed this link http://www.neweraammunition.com/
on another thread where Brian is loading the ITX. Has anyone hand loaded this.... been able to find loading data. Looks like it's a bit cheaper. Bob |

Thanks fellas.
Looks like we'll definitely be trying it out. Destry, So you are telling me that Sir Bickel is not only a good guy, Master Smith par excellence but also a deadly marksman in the field ? Just doesn't seem fair to the rest of us. Probably good in the sack too. Mediocrity bites! |

Brad,
Yes, it is most certainly true. He is murderous with a shotgun, I've seen him operate and it's with near surgical precision at times. As we used to say down at home, he can kill 'em high, wide, and deep. Was just out pigeon shooting with him a couple weekends ago actually. He was off that day for some reason, one of the first times I'd ever seen it. But just the shoot before, he'd carried home all the money, and with the shooters they draw that's saying something. Them boys don't just come out for the air... Regards, Destry P.S. As far as his being good in the sack, I have no knowledge. I've only seen him handle his gun in the field. Though, the knowing glances he exchanged with a certain lady behind the counter, did seem to hold up your suggestion.
