Great info Buckshot.
Those loads sound like rippers!
Killed a buck with the 00 load last year that was pushing 70 yards. I shot him 3 times. From the back of his ribs to his nose he had close to 20 pellets in him.
Is that an endorsement of the load? Or not?
At 70 yards I bet he was just knocking him down. At above 50 I didn’t notice as much impact but they still died just the same.
Plus, buckshot doesn’t shoot up meat real bad from what I’ve seen.
