Earlier this summer, we had a bunch of those wood boring bumble-bee's around the barn. I took my old trapping pistol and was shooting them with the CCI ratshot. I wont tell how bad my shooting was, but suffice to say, it was bad. A day or two later, I happen to run across some of the Federal ratshot that has the crimped brass, and bought a box. Once I started shooting them, my skills seemed to improve dramatically. Hmmmm...... so I tried the CCI's again and the results was the same as before.
I'm not gonna say what the problem was, cause I dont know. I do know that the kill ratio was a whole lot better with the crimped ratshot.
I've encountered the same thing shooting them at camp from the S&W 63. While the trap works well on them a whole lot more fun to shoot them.
