MOFOWLER Posted March 22, 2006 Posted March 22, 2006 Put a box of 1 oz. steel 7's through my black eagle II and it never failed to cycle. Probably won't ever shoot that light, but nice to know I could without any problems. Quote
Butch-M Posted March 22, 2006 Posted March 22, 2006 Out of curiosity; what do you use 1oz steel 7's for? Quote
MOFOWLER Posted March 22, 2006 Author Posted March 22, 2006 One of the places I dove hunt requires steel shot. It was like pulling teeth to find ammo for those hunts Quote
Butch-M Posted March 22, 2006 Posted March 22, 2006 Oh ... it does sound like an odd load, particularly with steels low density and the "two sizes up rule." Thanks Quote
john h Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 Hey, Mo Fowler. I'm just south of you here in Union, I shoot alot of those 1oz. win loads. Dicks in west co. at 270 & Manchester always has plenty on hand for 6.99 a box. I can tell you a mod. choke and about a 6-8' lead, will knock the tar out of Teal out to about 40 yards. I guess because they are light and fast? Don't really know how they work, But they do. Good Shooting! John P.S. I assume your talking about the cheap Xpert steel shot loads Quote
