I'll be trying these loads out in my Smoothbore Browning Gold. I know they were meant for rifled barrels, but if I can make slug loads on the cheap, it maymean that I will start shooting 3-gun again and all we do with the rounds is put them on paper. So while high velocity is nice for flatness, I'm just hopeful I can sling them downrange about 50 yards to print on paper. I've been reloading shotshells since I was 20 (I'm 41 now). I load for metallic and shotshell.. It's nie to see they made a better mouse trap
I think I have those clear overshot cards.. if not I'm sure I can use the paper overshot cards without too many issue. I don't roll crimp anything but slugs and only I shoot these things so we'll see.
Since all I need do is put holes in paper, I'm going to use locally aquired Lead Moly coated bullets made by Bear creek in weights of 325 and 440 gr. I'll post my results when I get the components and load some up. I did the calculations in my head and came up with a cost of $.55 per round not including the hulls. Should be interesting.
