Bullet was 100 grains when recovered after going through a lot of bone
As mentioned jacket thicker than most expect
Right around 3000 fps with 4350 not hot load
The owner ,Richard , trains dogs out there for a month at a time on wild birds which is a big plus . I received a few pointers to help finish off my young dog
Prices I thought very reasonable for hunt and I don't often use guides

I may have to contact them for next year. Thanks for the info! My just turned 1yo PP and I are heading to NoDak in November for his first sniff of wild birds. I'm guessing we'll have a ton of fun and not shoot a whole lot of birds.

I know Richard likes and trains pp's
I think it is important to get a young dog on as many wild birds as possible when young
I'm heading to ND next week for birds you'll have a good time there

Near impossible here, but we are having fun teaching each other. It'll be interesting to see what he does with wild birds. Good luck in ND! You're pup is getting quite the education. Well done.
