Thanks alot, Rob

been using lightfields for about 2yrs now. Tried a few , but lighfields work the best.

Thanks for replying what kind of groups are you getting out of the lightfields and how far are you shooting them?
Thanks alot Rob

I get best accuracy with 2.75" 1oz Copper solids. I have tried them all. Really wanted those high velocity 375gr remingtons and winchesters to work, but always had flyers.

I get 2" groups at 100 yards with copper solids. I get 3" groups with lightfields at 100yards. But don't like the lightfield terminal performance at 100 yards. Either one works for me. This is out of a browning gold slug gun with rifled barrel.

I have a remington 870 that loves federal hydroshoks, 2.75". It doesn't like magnums either.

Every sluggun is different. Just have to go out and try em all.

I haven't heard of Nitro Ammo Company.

I shoot a Marlin Model 512. Shoots ragged-hole groups at 50 yds with the older style Winchester 2.75" sabots. I haven't shot further than 50 yds yet, but the groups should be good at 100 too, unless something really wacky goes on.

Lightfields shoot well in 12 and 20 guages. They are a different style, and a little heavier.

I shoot 1 1/4oz Lightfields 3"sabots out of a mossberg 835 with rifled barrel. I can put three slugs in the pattern the size of the bottom of a beer can at 100 yrds.
