I have used the PR nickel plated shot for several years in a .410 load I worked up for doves. It sends .73 oz. of 8s at roughly 1150 fps. When I began testing it on doves I was comparing it to WW 3/4 oz. lead loads at about the same velocity.

I was getting a lot of cripples with the WW factory loads but the nickel plated shot increased the percentage of dishrag dead doves substantially. It is a standby for me now.
