Here's the deal.....
Someplace in Casa McC is a shell box with maybe 8 rounds of Hevishot 2s and about the same of Winchester BBBs. Both are 3".
I've booked a goose hunt with a pro guide in about a month or so. Maybe my old shells will turn up,(Probably will right after I shell out good money for more) maybe not.With a family of pack rats like us, stuff can get lost pretty good.
Maybe now's the time to pool the collective Gestalt of all the waterfowlers here and get new ideas on what to use.
Of course, this is going to be used in Frankenstein, my overpublicized parts 870 which is 3" capable. Intended prey is Canada Geese, from Giants to Brant.
Hevishot 2s work very well. The problem lies in the price. 3 shells cost as much as two BOXES of my pet reloads with enough change left for a soda.
Those BBBs will work, but they're not as one shot effective as the 2s.
I've no experience with Bismuth, Tungsten Matrix, or depleted Uranium pellets rubbed with garlic.
So here's your chance. List your pet load and why, I'll buy my choice, take it hunting and report on its effect rat cheer.
How about it?.
And thanks....
