Nitro ?
« on: April 22, 2021, 05:42:20 PM »
Wondering if any of y'all are shooting Nitro Ammunition ammo. Ive shot it in the past (12ga)but got away from it. Since then Ive read of some pressure issues and didnt know if they have ben corrected. Appreciate any input.

Nitro and Pendleton both have had pressure spike issues.

I'm down to about 6 shells from a box of 25. 1 1/2oz of straight 7's. I will move to tss when these are gone and not through Nitro. But I have 100% confident out to 40 yards with these through a Pure Gold .570. I would trust them out to 45 with wither a Pure Gold or Indian Creek .555 in a couple different 1187's or a Benelli M2. These were bought probably about 10 years ago. I've never experienced any problems with them. But I do know they bump pretty hard for a 20. And I've always felt like the pressure levels on them had to be very high. The only problem I've had with Nitro has been customer service. After the last box I bought I said that would be my last. Super super long wait on shipping with no communication. Maybe things have changed over the last few years. But although I have loved the product, I will spend my hard earned $ elasewhere.

I’ve shot 40+ of the 8/9 blend with no issues. Floors birds. No signs of high pressure for me in Benelli M2
