I did some reading recently about back in the lead days F shot was used on swans. Reason I decided to try it is because this nickel plated F from BPI specifically is what some of the coyote hunters use as a alternative to hevishot tss etc. I have seen it throw some great patterns out of the 12 and 10 gauge, actually further out than it probably should. For the deer and hogs I got some .358 round balls on the way and some .410" roundballs. The 358s for the 10 ga I believe these should be around 000 buck and the .410s for the 8 gauge I got the inspiration for those from Craigs posts about large buck in the 8 gauge.

I think the clear hull with the SP-8 wad and nickel plated shot makes for a pretty shell,Charlie heres a better look at the shell.
