Will Hevi-Shot make a better 10ga load
« on: April 08, 2011, 10:05:47 AM »
If they make a better load than #5 shot, I will really look at buying a 10ga for next spring.  If they keep the same loads, I will keep using my 12ga.  What do you think will happen?

I am hoping for MagBlends, but I am going to reload and have a box of Nitro's just in case.

If they do make MagBlends I hope it is 2.5 ounce 1200 fps with equal parts 5,6 and 7's. I am going to try them if they do come out, but if not I am going to try a box of 5's just to see.

They had it on their website last year but killed it for some reason.

Lengthy talk on that load weight and what needs to happen..the 2.5 oz would drive a coffin nail in the market. A 2-3/8 is nice like the 5's but would be sweeter with 6's or 7's. I will still shoot a 2-3/8 oz load of mag blends..

I e-mailed the company last year and they said they had no plans for further 10 gauge loads.  I sure hope they have changed their minds.

I just talked to the heavy shot rep. at cabelas today  and he said the 10 guage is losing popularity, but he did not say they would or would not make anything other than the # 5.

We'll know for sure soon enough...Don't believe anything you hear and only half what you see...I'm leaning towards the side of "yes we will"...

How much trouble could it be to throw #6's or  7's in the hopper instead of #5's?
