Title: What is your 20ga Pb Choice?
Post by: dawei on March 14, 2012, 11:39:40 PM
What is your choice of Pb for your 20ga guns? Mine are..........
• Winchester® Supreme® 20ga 3" Mag 1200fps 1 5/16oz #4 (STH2034)
• Winchester® Supreme® 20ga 3" Mag 1200fps 1 5/16oz #5 (STH2035)
• Remington® Nitro-Turkey 20ga 3" Mag 1185fps 1¼oz #5 (NT20M5)
• Federal® Flitecontrol® Mag-Shok 20ga 3" Mag 1 5/16oz #5 ( PFC258F 5)

I use the Winchester® loads in my Mossberg® Mdl 500C through a Wrights® Swarm™ .555" choke (#4), and; a Hastings® .570" choke (#5).

The Remington® and Federal® loads are used in my Remington® SPR220 (Baikal IZH-43) SxS.  I have two Colonial Arms® turkey chokes in this gun, .570 & .575". I shoot the Remington® load through the .570" choke; the Federal® FC does best with the .575" choke.

Are those Federal® loads you are using the older "Grand Slam" loads with the Triple Plus wad or the newer Mag-Shok® w the FC wad?

I bought 25 boxes of the magshok with the "triple plus wad" for my 10 gauge. After i put a few waddings through targets i went down to pick one up and it was a flight control wad
