Im asking because i know a store that has A couple hundred boxes and most have been there for 1-3 years
I believe the 300325 was considered to be the best. The 300514 was also a good load. These would both be # 7 loads
Trying to narrow this down myself. Looking forward to responses.
Are the 7's the only ones with Lot issues?
Holy cow! A couple hundred boxes?! That's a fortune!
300325 is a excellent Lot #, avoid 300488 at all cost.

inside the flap on the box
Only the 3.5 inch load Lot #'s have been mentioned in this thread. As for as the 3 inch loads go, Lot #200788 is the 2010 loading that patterns so well. :drool:

No doubt.
I put 360 and 357 in a 10" with 2 different chokes at a tape measured 40yds with that lot #300325.
300525 is good too for the 3.5" #7 loads.
300526 is excellent in the 3.5" #6 loads.
I'm pretty sure this was with lot 300525.

So would 300524 be good then also? What year were the 300525's from?
