"Anybody on this forum had any dealings with the Clean Shot pellets before Hodgdon sued them and got them taken off the market? I found a guy who is packing in his gun shop and moving to the sunny and hurricane infested Florida for retirement."

Shot up the last of my Clean Shot pellets last summer.Wanted to make Clean Shot pellets work for me but they never did. They would never light reliably when fired inmy Encore and CVA guns.Sometimes the bullet would not even leave the barrel. The only way to get them to light off right was to use an igniting charge of five grains of Pyrodex or CleanShot granular. When ignited that way, two Clean Shot pellets were much more powerful than two Pyrodex pellets,judging from the guns recoil. The hardesti have ever been kicked by a gun was when i used five grains of Pyrodex to ignite three Clean Shot pellets in my CVA Magnum Hunter.
