looking at buying one, maybe true glow or the other competitors. what do you guys think of them. they work good, do they last or is this just a waste of $100.
I have an older model 20ga Mossberg pump gun (made before the days of steel shot); with their factory installed C-Lect Choke. Checking with the factory they advised NOT to shoot steel through it. Using those guidelines I'm not going to use HeviShot® in it either. It does all I could ask of it with lead shot however. Screwed all the way down to the tightest Full setting; it patterns Federal® 3" Mag 1 5/16oz #5 & 6 very, very well. My wife, (it's now her gun); has no problems dumping gobblers @ 35 yds with this combination.
Check with the manufacturer (PolyChoke®?) if it will be safe for steel, tungsten, or HeviShot® before you shell out your hard earned $$$.
