General Forum / Re: 20 gauge lead load

Last post by Ihuntoldschool - February 20, 2026, 08:47:35 PM

Several reasons .

They dont fit/pack as well with the larger pellets.

They dont pattern any better than your 3 inch lead loads currently available.

Recoil.  Alot of youth shoot 20 Gauge guns.

And the majority of your semiautos on the market are built for loads up to 1 1/4 ounces. (20Gauge).

You should sign up under the individual (free agent) signup thread. We will probably be all full with returning players.

I called up my first bird with one when I was 12-13.That was 26-27 years ago.  I've still got the original striker but my dad wanted the call back and lost it.  I've been looking at them on eBay and can't make myself spend that much on one. Almost pulled the trigger on a graphite one a week ago. But I've never heard the the graphite one.
Hunted with a friend of Billy's who was runnin a hustlin hen before he started selling them.Seems like it didn't have the Purple Heart lid like the productions ones do. It was a sweet box.

I shot a gobbler at 20 steps with the federal 3.5" #9 tss shells a coworker gave me a few years ago. My oldest boy did the same at 30 yards with the same gun, load and choke the same year. It killed them. They don't pattern as good as apex loads on paper from what I remember. I typically dont use tss in a 12 gauge as it just doesn't make sense at the ranges I consider the game won. But free shells are free shells

That's awesome, congrats, did you get a history of when and where tag was put on? Top photo looks like a double beard also, double trophy.
