That tape while perhaps not The Best choice does two things . First it tightens the slug to the choke and second it has the bearing surface of the slug covered to cut down on lead smears in the bore . I’ll trust it out to thirty yards but not so much past that .

Set down today to load six more to try on paper again then I thought to maybe add ten more for actual use on living creatures . So I loaded sixteen total . Hopefully this afternoon or tommorrow I can try a pair from both barrels at 28 yards again .
