8 ga reloads
today i shot several rounds of reloads in the 8 ga..all the rounds were loaded with bb shot...i did not use any buffer in these loads and no petals on the plastic wad used...they patterned really good at 70 steps 5 shot on average in a paper plate of 8 1/2 diameter...at 50 steps a average of 20 bbs in the plate...was shooting 2 ounce of steel bb...no noticable damage to gun barrels and ive shot several loads thru the parker 8 ga and the fa loomis...supply of bb shot in lead has dryed upon the internet...even buckshot is sold out on the major shot sites... was shooting the fa loomis 8 ga today...not telling everybody to try the steel bb s but they work in my gun... charlie
