I have one in 20ga. used Win. Gold Particion supreme's 2 3/4" have not had to look for any of the 13 deer I shot with that combination. __________________ 6 day buck hunters had their best years when Nov.+ Jan. were bow only seasons additionally the Div. did best when every doe killed was paid for on a separate tag.

Quote: Win. Gold Particion supreme's 2 3/4 Those are hard hitting slugs for sure. And flat shooting. Thinking about trying them in my encore 20 ga big$$$$ have kept me from trying it though. Been using the muzzy during the gun season. H&R slug gun is very accurate good choice markbrit__________________ "from my cold dead hands"

I shoot Buckhammers and get great groups. They do an awesome job on a deer as well. __________________ I hunt legally, carefully and ethically. I pay for the priviledge, and can use whatever legal weapon I choose. If you don't like the fact that I hunt, or what I hunt with, too bad. Get a life, get a job, or worry about things that matter.

The Buckhammers group nicely but they really plummet past 100 yards, and I hunt some fairly open areas at times. __________________ I hunt legally, carefully and ethically.

I have the carbon copy of your gun. All I ever put through my 20 are Lighfields. Never had to track one yet. Last year I dropped a buck at 95 yards right through the heart.
Then again I hear all good stuff from the above mention slugs. I Just personally have never shot anything else. __________________ "Dont complain about your problems. There is always someone worst off then you."

Keep in mind that I veiw shooting deer with firarms in a differant light than most would too. __________________ 6 day buck hunters had their best years when Nov.+ Jan. were bow only seasons additionally the Div. did best when every doe killed was paid for on a separate tag.

Thanks for the feedback. I have heard that all the premium slugs shoot well. Most of these slugs are $10-15 a box of 5.
Anybody shoot anything cheaper? |
