Title: What's the scoop?
Post by: Houndstooth Game Calls on September 23, 2012, 11:25:05 PM
What's the scoop on fed heavy 7's? I have been reading about them sounds like they are the closest it gets to TSS. Think I want to try the what type choke and constriction do y'all reccomend for a nef 10? What type results have you had with them? Thanks!

I got the same results with the same choke,  and they blow right through 5/8 hardwood ply similar to hs #4ans 5's

The choke isnt rated for that shell,  others that are industry choke manufacturing authorities inform me its safe

I have had no issue or seen any problems ,use at own judgement or risk if any
