Well got my new slug rifle yesterday, got the Weaver mounted up, grabbed some slugs and headed to the range. . . .
Hornady SST's were an epic waste of money, and I must say I am disappointed, I have never had a gun that flat out would not group even moderately well with a Hornady load. . . Wouldn't even keep 5 on a sheet of paper at 100. . .
Remington 2 3/4 buckhammers, God these make nice big holes! Im sure they drop like a rock past 100, but for less expensive practice they are good <1" at 50 yards just over 2" at 100 yards Not bad for being half the price of most sabot slugs
Remington Copper Solids 2 3/4" These shot very nice (and are expensive) 1.177" 5 shot group at 100 Yards
Will be getting in some 3" Federal lads that Savage suggests, and some 3" buck hammers to play with. . . .anyone have a source for Remington Accutips? I can't find em, and my dealer can't either. . . . ..
What ya'll think?
