My main problem is I am sitting on about 75 of the 10 gauge loads and probably 250 12 gauge 2 3/4" and 3" buffered magnum 4s, 5s and 6s.
Need to shoot those up.
I might try TSS or Hevi Shot if I get me a little 20.
That’s a problem many would like to have just about now.
There in lies their problem.
Lack of planning. I knew 10 gauge ammo would almost dry up so I bought a ton at about $10 a box years ago.
The 12 gauge hoard happened when I realized my 24" barreled Gold was one picky SOB. I stocked up on a schittload of the Federal Turkey Thugs #5 & #6 doubt I will ever shoot half of em up.
Even if I buy an auto 20 I will probably just stick with #6 lead. For my style of hunting the TSS holds no advantages.
Out to 40 yards which is a hell of a long ways especially in the timber a load of lead 6s will work just fine, hell even a 1 oz. load of 7 1/2s will hammer a bird at 40.
Even most of the birds I have killed w my 10 have been under 35 yards, no need for a sledge hammer when a trim hammer works just fine.
