tank Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 Has anyone tried the kent 1 1/4 load at 1600 +. I was wondering how it looked when shot on paper? Will price be about the same as their other 3.5 loads. tank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazyhair Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 Whats the point of all the speed, most of it will burn off within a few feet of leaving the muzzle, why not just use 1300fps or something like that, its cheaper, is it not?

Engdahl Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 I think i am going to buy a few boxes of the Kent, 1625 BB for my goose trip. Is BB going to be big enough?? i suppose at 1625 fps it wont matter... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max4Gooser Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 3 1/2" Steel BB ismy primary goose load, it will be plenty perfect for geese. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fattire75 Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 If shooting BB 1300 to 1400 is fast enough get the largest payload you can. Speed is over rated drop one or two shot size from lead and go with the largest payload you can. If BB or larger speed does not really matter. If smaller that BB go with the 1550 or 1400-1450 with largest payload you can get. It is hard to get good patterns with loads faster than 1450 and you often give up payload. My goose load 1 shot at 1400-1450 with 1.25 oz of shot. Mod choke For ducks same load with 2 or 3 shot with IC or Mod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
