Hey Andy!
Good deal! I guess I'm not handling their website very well, cuz I didn't find that they last time I was there, but will be more persistent now. Thanks very much. Mike |

Best thing to do is just call them. I ordered a mixed flat of normal shells Thursday afternoon and it showed up at my door mid day Saturday. They are great!

OK Andy, appreciate the inside scoop. Have dealt w/them before, but not a whole lot and it's been awhile. Thanks much!

I’m with Andy: bismuth. With today’s alternative to steel there is just no reason to risk an old gun no matter how open the gun is choked.

Well Dean, thanks. This exactly the kind of advice we were looking for. She is very thrilled w/the gun and certainly wants to treat it right. Much appreciated.

I am of the opinion that steel shouldn’t be used in anything other than a NiCrMo barrel. The density of the charge, regardless of wad wall or fusion, passes through the choke constrictions as a pretty tight mass. Bulges are a lot more expensive than a pound or two of bismuth.

In my opinion steel should only be used in skyscrapers and automobile frames. It is the absolute worse thing to try and kill a bird with. There were many more birds, mostly waterfowl, who were wounded and lost by using steel loads than ever died from "lead poisoning". Use Bismuth... your gun and the birds deserve it.
