please confirm....
Pete, I have been loading a 1 1/4 oz of #2 bismuth load at about 1300 f/s (8000 psi) that is killer on big honkers. You could probably drop back the amount of shot and still have a formidable goose killer.
I had a 70 year old man tell me that during WWII one of the shotshell companies was having a hard time getting lead and was loading up a steel shot shotshell for hunting purposes...........they called it "chilled shot".....????
Old wives tale or true ??
Kurt
