RE: Tested those Nitro hevishot loads finally!!!!

MOTT, thanks buddy!! This was a long ordeal that I' m glad is over. I sure wish that I had all the money from all those shells and choke tubes that I tried.

Jalvja, at a distance of 12-14 yards, it was almost a slug hole!! I can surely see that you can' t shoot the birds close with this load unless you want to decapitate them.

Ken, good luck with yours!! One thing that was a problem was that I wasn' t on a sturdy bench. I was just off the top of a fence post, and the pattern wasn' t centered because I must of ben moving a little due to not having my right elbow on something solid. So make sure to use a bench when patterning these out!! I realize these are very expenzive shells, but after seeing the results, I' m glad that I made the choice to try them out.
