Nitro Ammo & Rhino Choke.. Still the best.
Finally at the bottom of the box I bought 5-6 years ago (much to the detriment of many Toms). Are they still considered the best?? Given the $$ I spent hunting, this ammo was probably the single best expense and easily gave me 15 yards over factory lead shot.
Just wondering if in the last 6 years the hive mind, collective brain trust here still considers them the best?? Anyone??? Thanks, Rob |
No way!!! Hevi 13 has been proven as the best of the best these days. Also, it seems that their new Magnum Bland is quickly gaing a HUGE fanclub as well. You're going to be shocked when you test this ammo side by side with those old Nitros... the extra hitting power of the Hevi 13 is simply amazing!

Save your money - call them closer than 30 yards - and you don't need high priced ammo - nor 3.5 inch -

Thxs but, rather go home with 40-50 yard bird than save $3.00 on a shotshell As for my 2 cents? I still think that Nitros are the best. I've had some Mag Blends put 180 pellets inside 10 inches at 40 yards but Nitros are generally on up in the 240 range. |
I get the best patterns out of my 870 Super Mag with a jelly head choke and Rem. Wingmaster HD 3.5" # 6's. At 40 yards, I can get a consistent 220 plus hits in a 9" circle. Pretty devastating.

I did switch off to some Hevi 13, 2.25 oz of #6 that i bought last year. They do have a great pattern and i've taken 2 birds this season with them. They still don't pattern in my 835 as well as the Nitros but they are getting closer. We could use some comp to get the prices down any way. my 2 cents

Tom down at 60yds in narrow wooded lane w/ my basic Moss 500 w/xx full Moss choke, and Nitro's 4x5x7.5 load. Need I say anymore!!!!!!
