I would get them off the net then. Try cabelas or bass pro. They are super quik on shipping. This is one of the reasons I decided to keep with lead cause they are everywhere. And dick's didn't have em. The one in kansas city has bunches of them and noone seems to be buyin them. Good luck on finding them. Maybe after the season I can get you some from dick's at the after season sale prices and work out somethin with ya.

I bought some 2 3/4" Winchester Supreme Elite Extended Range at Bass Pro a couple of days ago. It was on sale but still expensive in my book.

I decided to try the extended Range Winchesters because they advertised you could shoot them without worrying about a special choke. I shot them at forty yards the other day and they performed very good for only having 1 1/2 ounces of shot. At forty yards a bird would be in real trouble with this little load. Recoil was noticably lighter too.
