Hevi Shot

I have been shooting hevi shot for the last 4 or 5 yrs in 2 or 3 different guns and have had no problems at all with it. Remington has lost their contract with Environmetal so they have a new shot out this year whick looks as though it will be a winner. Winchester also has a new type of "hevi shot" this year also. Check out their web sites for additional info. I'm going to try the new Remington offering this year. The Hevi Shot puts steel to shame for use on waterfowl for certain. It is easily possible (for a good shooter) to bring down ducks and geese at very long range. Reminds me of when I was guiding goose hunters all those years ago when you could use the premium lead shot shells... Maybe even better because it patterns a fair amount better than lead.
