Title: Legal Shot Size
Post by: albrubacker on September 28, 2014, 07:05:55 PM
So I have been emailing the State of Delaware about getting the regulations changed so we can use straight #7 shot for turkey. The last email stated that the Division is currently on board with my propsal, but they need to consult with the Delaware NWTF Chapter.
I knew a few of the head honchos for this chapter so I spoke to them about my conversation with DE F&W. They asked me to do a presentation at the next board of directors meeting.
Any thoughts on helping my cause in the presentation?

 Show them a balisitic chart of the Fed HW # 7 Loads ! Also a down range compairision to the lead loads & a penetration test @ 40 Yds ! That should open some eyes ! Good luck with it !    :icon_thumright:
