We were all really skeet shooters. The only thing I did with the International Trap Loads was shoot ducks on the Oceanside Marsh at Camp Pendelton.

That is my nickel plated shot story.

I’d be intrested to know what kinda velocity they were claiming with the 1 1/4 ounce nickel plated ? I think the nickel plated flyer loads I had were Fioochi .
