Why take the chance of damaging something with this kind of value with a load that's just under $20.00 for every pull of the trigger?

I know that's beyond my comfort level, just to say I killed a Turkey with a 28ga.

I need to make a correction on the price I quoted per pull of the trigger. I thought these were packaged 5 shells per box. There are 10 shells per so they would be a bargain of just shy of $10 bucks per-pull. Still beyond my comfort level though for the reasons I stated before.

Everyone knows their own comfort levels & if someone wants to run these through their guns please feel free to do so & report back to us on the results.

I do have a friend that shoots these TSS loads in a modern 12ga auto-jammer and raves about them.
