Bismuth loads
 
I have a Parker GH 20ga. (1925 so fluid steel barrels). Would anyone be able to suggest or recommend a good brand of bismuth shells to use? Many thanks!

Be sure to get the barrels checked out by someone who knows how before you shoot it. Always good to be careful, and you never know what's been done to barrels.

Does boss offer a low pressure load?

I don't think they list it but if you call you can ask for it specifically. It doesn't have plastic shot cups, using fiber wads instead.

I bought a bulk box of them several years ago.

Stan- I bought some of those too. At the time they would tell you the pressure, it was reasonable but when I recently called to confirm my recollection they wouldnt say anymore. I dont think they offer the fiber these days, but if more of us ask, perhaps they would again.

Aaron, I did a search on the Fox site and found my old post where I reported that BOSS had told me they were around 8500 psi.

I had an email going with boss, sounds like nothing below 9500:

Sort of an odd place to find Bismuth Ammunition, but they have #4 and 6 shot in stock.
