This is the one supposedly double gun friendly shot that I've not tried. I don't even know anyone that has! I'd like to hear some reports as well.

I traded a couple of emails with them. They don't appear to have the pressure information that I sought

Are you talking about Fiocchi Tundra? I've only used the 3 inch version in a Model 12 Heavy Duck. It works OK. As I remember it is VERY pricey. Like twice TM's costs. And is not 2 Xs as effective. I think steel as every bit as effective WITHIN reasonable range. As for short chambers I haven't even seen any.

Tried Fiocchi Tundra in 2 3/4" 12g for geese. Feathers flew and birds kept going while the same load in Bismuth Ammo put them down.
