Title: What's the best way to order nitros
Post by: Fl strutter on April 04, 2017, 06:41:25 AM
I've called and left a message. I emailed them. Still no response. I see that some sporting goods stores carry them but haven't tried that yet. I want to try the 457 in the h51013 and the h518. That's what they suggest for my 870. How do u use the order form when ordering

I always just send an order form. Never had any issues.

Do u just print out the forms and send cash. I was wanting to talk to them to get some info and advice on some loads. It says the 457 are best for 870. The h518 is 2 7/16 oz. And the h51013 is 2 1/4 oz load.

Call them in July for your needs for next season .
I'm not being a smart A$$ but they get covered up this time of year and they are turkey hunters as well.
I shot there 2 7/16 oz. Straight seven load and loved it before I started loading my own..

I get mine from my buddy's shop or have him order them for me in February, imo the H517 & H518 are better loads and both gave a better pattern in my 11-87.

I spoke with them and the guy recommend the h51013. I was leaning towards the h518. Are u using the 457 I'm your 1187 and what kind of pattern are u getting. I'm already tagged out this year I'm already getting ready for next year.

Yep you have to order early I usually call Nov-Jan and usually get thru no problem I ordered several boxes last time so I'm good for a few seasons

Same as a lot of guys on here order mine January or February. They get swamped in the spring.

Newer should I get the h518 2 7/16oz. or 51013. 2 1/4 oz. Do the 4x5x7 pattern as good as a load of straight 7s or straight 6s

I would go with what they told you I don't know why but from my understanding there really is difference between the newer and older models of course the straight 7 will be better on density the 4 and 5's  are threw in for little extra range but there aren't that many of em in there if your keeping your shots reasonable either will be fine the choke will determine more than the gun let them know your setup and I'd go with the recommendation only getting few that way if want try different shell can I have box straight 6's in my older 870 that are just killers

You have to be patient with them.  I am sure they will get back to you after the season.
