Hi All.
Years ago i shot some remington peters power piston shells and they were
green ones. With long brass and a ribbed case No 5 shot and boy did they kill
ducks. I shot them in a Greener GP with a 32 inch barrel full choke.
All the best Dave.

I would love to see Mike Stahle's boxes, top view to see the load specs and the price tags. By the way, "Blue Magic" was the nomenclature for the smooth, unribbed case target shells. I suspect the pictured boxes may be the first generation High Velocity hunting loads, first introduced about 1961. They were ribbed cases with the burned in crimp centers. Shoot us a picture of the tops of the boxes and the top of one of the shells.

Bill, I hope Mike will post a pic just to compare. Here's a box of the HV I have in my stash.As you mentioned, ribbed case, melted crimp.
