Hi,

I hope this finds you well!  You had requested a 10 gauge Magnum Blend load this spring....I listened!  It will be available for shipment in September!

Enjoy your summer and I look forward to hearing from you!

Jim,

Thanks for the update! That is some of the best news I have heard in a while. I cannot wait to get my hands on some of those shells and see how they run through the SP-10.

I have a feeling they will pattern well. Just glad there is another option.

I guess your right Jim, the squeaky wheel does get the grease every once and a while.

Fantastic !!  Did they mention what size payload and FPS ? , I hope it is a good load

The inherent traits of a lower PSI 10 gauge shell , and short shot charge , I suspect it will be easy to get to shoot well - 10 gauges are not finicky guns

I have about 5 top quality chokes and will be glad to put the 10 Gauge mag blends through - I feel getting it to break 300 should be possible ,if it breaks 320 -340 I will run out and get a case or two on the spot

I am excited about this as well.  I am in the process of converting my SP-10 from a goose gun to a trukey rig.  I jsut baught aRhino 720 choke, curious to see how these loads do out of it.
