I second a Dawkins, his stoned aluminum in plastic pot is nasty!

Congrats!

Truth. Plus I bet it is a nice even looking pattern with the full.

Have a buddy shooting 2oz of TSS 9's thru .717 flush choke in 20" barre and he gets awesome hunting patterns. I bet with 8.5's it will be a great hunting pattern.

Awesome season! Great pics!

Those are some smoking patterns!

I love the Cerakote tiger stripe I got from black doves. It was way more than I wanted to spend, but it looks great and has held up awesome.
If I had to do it all over again, I would just have got all the metal done in black. I wouldn't dip one.

Awesome pics! Congrats on an amazing season so far. Could ya give some specs on some of those daggers!?

Awesome stuff! Congrats guys!

gotcha!

I would think the factory full would give you that kind of pattern with the 2.5oz load.

Hal has a 2.25oz load, it is a great load. Immense overkill.

I think the BPI flattens them out, I much prefer the Precision Reloading roll bit to the BPI. It is a cheaper alternative to the GAEP.

Like the extra speed too. You shooting 8's or 9's Tommy?

Glad I talked ya into it. Anything over 1 7-16 is wasted shot [emoji23]

Awesome! Well worth being late.

http://www.longbeardcalls.com/calls.htm can build you a long box that sounds exactly like this hen http://vid23.photobucket.com/albums/b378/nonnydarnell/MVI_0141.mp4 Unfortunately that hen couldn't call a gobbler to save her life, because she sounds like a box call. :LMAO: Part of me feels the same...

I love my SS kwila/poplar box. My bro has been slaying them with his Maple/butternut SS. I agree that you can tell when someone is using one, but a lot of times they seem to pull a gobble when nothing else will. I like to use them to locate mostly, but sometimes if the bird is eating it up I use the...

Way to go hookedspur, awesome!

Ole5beards, he was saying at 56 yards the #5 lead pellet traveling 1100fps from the muzzle penetrates 1.25" in ballistics gel. Doesnt matter if handloaded or factory.

Awesome season! Congrats.
