    trap ammo question

    Difficult to load 870 compared to Mossberg?

    I agree with AI&P Tactical. A clean magazine tube and good follower make more of a difference than the shell lifter style. The stock metal followers in the 500 series Mossbergs have bound up on me making the insertion of another shell in the magazine impossible. I prefer followers...

    2 3/4 vs 3 Inch 00 Buck For HD

    I don't see any need for 3" buck shot loads. I agree with the previous poster who said he prefers the low recoil or Law Enforcement loads. My favorite is the Fiocchi LE 00 buck loading. It has a full shot up wad, nickel plated shot, and a folded crimp @ 1200 fps. A very controllable round. I...
