Default Boss Ammunition.....

I know a lot of folks on here are fans of Boss Ammunition and I was too until I read this.

Anybody supporting a complete lead shot ban is supporting the death of using vintage guns for clay target shooting.

If you feel the same way I do, call or email and let Boss know.

I saw that also and have held off buying their products for sub gauge guns.They quote losses of crippled birds etc. and they quote birds saved by not shooting lead.I just decided to not buy their products and either purchase someone else's but I'm also going to reload my own.

I will add Boss Shotshells to my personal boycott list. (It's a long list.)

This strikes me as totally self serving by Boss.

Looks their marketing team attended the Bud Light academy of business. They turn on the customers who can afford and like their products. Deeply stupid.

As John Allen detailed, this is likely not very well thought out by Boss (or just self-serving). Either way, it feels like Google review might be an avenue to convey a message quickly and publicly. My call did little to inspire the listener.

They cater to young crowd who have never know a world where ducks could be hunted with lead. This young crowd actually buys into the total lead ban. It’s stroking the 40 year olds and down. They have a goose guide here in Texas pimping their bismuth dove loads.

Dean has nailed it on the head. I just left a blistering Google review and would encourage everyone else to do so.
