Default RE: Duck load

HeviShot is THE answer!!!

But alas, unless you are either really bored or shoot several flats a season the need for reloading duckloads is shrinking. The original inventor of HeviShot is now in business for themselves (they had a 5 year agreement/non-compete with Remington and now it is out) they are marketing the EXACT product but obviously they cant call it "HeviShot" because Remington still owns the rights too that name. Instead the company is calling it "HeviSteel" and it is priced at HALF what Remington is pricing the HeviShot for.

A typical 3" duckload in HeviShot is a 10shot box in the $20 range. HeviSteel is now loading 3" HeviSteel in regular fullsize boxes (25 count) for around $24!!!

GONE is the need for anything over #4 sized and say good bye too 3.5" necessities. A good 2 3/4" gun with a modified tube full of HeviSteel will shoot circles around a 3" steel gun with a $90 aftermarket tube!!!

LUVIN EVERY MINUTE OF IT,
RA

ps
The only thing you need to be careful of is shooting stuff like HeviShot/Steel in old 2 3/4" guns with chokes tighter than modified. You can bulge the barrels on your favorite old A5 with such loads. Then you might need to look at Bismuth.
