Default Oklahoma Dove Loads on Sale???

Has anyone been able to find any dove loads on sale in the Oklahoma City area? Academy usually has their Remington Sure Shot on sale for $3.29 a box ($32.99 a case) but I guess they haven't done it yet. I also saw these shells at Bass Pro for $40.04 a case. If anyone has found any please let me know.

Thanks,

Unfortunately academy already had thier sale on dove loads two weeks ago. I missed the sale as well. Basspro had them on sale for 2.99 a box last tuesday and I missed that one too.
I bought a case from sportsmans warehouse for 37.00. It was the cheapest I could find. It was for federal #8 I think its a 7/8 load. 1400 fps. Hope that helps

well dang!!

I found my receipt from last year $2.99 for a box of Remington Sure Shot! Now they are $4.29 at Academy. I still have a case and half left over from last year, so I might be able to hold off on purchasing any this year.

Those shells are going up 15% Sept 1. www.Natchezss.com has a link on their home page about ammo increases. I bought a couple cases of sureshot for $40/ case at BPS. I too was hoping academy would have them for around $3/box. If you find any for less than $4, please post.

Why in the world does anyone shoot those shells?
7/8 load in a 12ga.
Spend some extra money like2 bucks per box and get a good shell that you will be successful with and stop wounding a bunch of birds.
AA Shells are the best
Super Sport 3 1/8 drams 1 1/8 shot 1300 fps. pattern consitent every shot
4.97a box

Daleh, These shells that I am speaking of are Remington SureShot Heavy Dove Load 2 3/4", 3 1/4, 1 1/8 oz, 7 1/2 shot. They shoot well in my gun and are usually $5-6 a box. BPS and/or Academy usually runs them on sale right before dove season for $3-$4. I think these are good shells, if you don't I'm sorry.

Remington® ShurShot® Heavy Dove Loads Shotshells[/align]









A sure bet for dove and all kinds of upland game, Remington ShurShot loads have earned the reputation as one of the best-balanced, best-patterning upland field loads available. And for good reason. These shells combine an ideal balance of powder charge and shot payload to deliver effective velocities and near-perfect patterns with mild recoil for high-volume upland hunting situations. Box

Last year I used the remington heavy dove loads. they were great, but im not going to spend $50 a case when I can get a case of federals for $37.00. I have never had a problem wounding birds using either load. If you prefer the other loads then have a ball!

Our Academy has the Remington heavy dove loads for $4.39 per box. They also have Winchester Super X, 12 Gauge, 2 3/4 in, 1 oz, #8, 1290 fps for $2.99 per box. I couldn't resist buying the Wincheseter Super X at that price. I've used it in the past and felt that they were decent shells. Worst case scenario I'll use it for shooting clay pigeons. I'm actually considering buying a couple more cases, they had a 2 case limit.
