duck loads!
 

I've really enjoyed seeing and reading all the adventures in duck shooting, but what loads are you guys using? I've got a Trojan choked lt mod and ic but I would never dream of running steel down those barrels, but now with all the stories and pics I think I need to get er out of the upland and into the wetland! You guys using hevi shot classic doubles? Are there other non tox shells out there that are safe?

I've found Kent Tungsten Matrix to be the best so far. I use it in both vintage doubles (Parker, Fox, etc.) and in my Belgian Browning Superposeds as well where steel is a no-no.

Ive used that in my double auto with great success! I got a triple of mallards with it, went to buy more....sold out :( I'll have to try and find some more. Are there any other loads out there, I've got classic doubles and Rio Bismuth on the way.

KTM is hands down the best non-tox I've used if you can find it. I saw Rio bismith loads in the Denver Cabelas last week but bismuth is a far cry short of KTM. I've used Classic Doubles and have it in even the sub gauges down to 28ga but don't have a set opinion on it yet.

sucks about the bismuth ;(

RIO Bismuth gets the award for best ad and I am trying it out. Hard to beat kent tm and I also like nice shot

lets us know about the bismuth, I have some coming friday for Saturday morning blind shooting, plan on getting a few with the Parker!

Hevi-Shot
 

I was able to find Hevi-Shot for vintage guns but at the price of each box you better make every shot count. They also have it in 12 and 20ga.

One ounce of NICE shot in a 12 will kill any waterfowl, including geese, depending on shot size. I by the bulk and load it but there have been some supply issues lately. I believe they are looking for a new manufacturer.

Peter you don't wanna get into this shot charge conversation with me. The day I shoot an ounce of shot at a big late season canada goose is the day I've lost my whole mind. LOL

P.S. I've still got those shells for you. One of these days I'll actually get around to posting them to you. I'm a little broke, it might be this week!
