Thanks for the reply I plan to use this load in the open barrel for pheasants and chukars. I won't shoot this one past 25 yards or so. Is this shot soft? The manufacturer markets it as a hard shot.

I just picked up some Kent Gamebore, 20 ga, 1 oz #7. It occurred to me when I got it home that the shells are loaded with fibre wads. Will these fibre wads fucntion thru a back-bored barrel? Thanks in advance. JCR

Mine's a vegan. She eats no animal products whatsoever. Finding a place to eat when we travel is a royal pain in the @$$. However when it comes to my hunting trips, all I have to do is plan them far enough out that I'm not conflicting with any other plans & I get no grief at all. I do make...
