God I miss Blain...LOL

If you' ve been around here for a while, you surely know what I mean.

Man I don' t. Wasn' t he the joker wanting to use buckshot for bear backup.

eldeguello..

i was talking about 000 buckshot. all the pellets are the same in the shells.

Pro-line..

i have talked to Blain via e-mail. he is buisy at school.we hope to be hunting this year with his super deluxe shotgun.

I use a 2 3/4" 00 magnum shell containing 12 pellets and 4 drams of powder. I also have some reg. 2 3/4" 00 shells containing 9 pellets and has 2 3/4 drams of powder. And all shot sizes are standard and uniform no matter what company manufactures them. http://www.remington.com/ammo/shotshell/exp_bucksh.htm or http://www.remington.com/ammo/ballis...l/slubkbal.htm

Some people don' t use buckshot the right way. They must think that just because the shot spreds that it gives them the ability the take bad shots or something. But I have taken many deer with 2-3/4" 00 9 pellet buckshot and they ALWAYS dropped on the spot. I always tried for a neck shot though.

IMO, buckshot is very effective if used the right way.

Quilly...Tell him we' re all still waiting for the pictures of the Cape Buffalo taken with buckshot...and the elephant...and the rhino...and the polar bear...

Man oh man would he get fired up! LOL

Pro-Line, you forgot about the T-Rex, the Mig 25 and the T1 tank.

God the memories, Friz...LOL

When I use buckshot I use #1. There is no different sizes of OO.
OO should all be the same diameter.
