They were made for a one run season, but i dont know what year they were made.
I got that box of 7.5 @ a gun show.

Brian,

If I hang around you and chipper long enough, I may just learn a few things.

Memory may be good, but don't you remember Stinkpickle? He used to post about those shells all the time. All he used for years.

But it's a shame that you have to see visual evidence to believe a post that has already been confirmed. :character0029:  I have 2 boxes of those shells myself.

id like to have a box of those i bet they would be great for those 20yard big woods turkey kills :drool:

These were around for several years, even before Federal started putting the picture of a turkey on the boxes.

Well I wonder why they never hit these parts.  All I ever saw around here was 4, 5. and 6 shot.

Well I'll be dang.  That's the first I ever seen them.  I stand corrected.  We never had them around these parts.


I've never seen them either.

...'cause I bought 'em all.   ;)

So were they a 40yd killer?

Yes...and a couple of distances that can't be mentioned here.

I recently found three full boxes of those old Fed. Premium 3" 2 oz. #7 1/2's. Mine are the earlier run without the Turkey on the box. I plan on trying them out and maybe hunt with them this spring. I'm going to run them thru my Benelli SBE with Lohman's now discontinued .650 "Long Shot" choke tube. I have high hopes for some good patterns. 2 oz. of # 7 1/2's is about 700 pellets! WOW. :o
Deer see you and think you are a stump. The Old Gobbler sees a stump and thinks it is YOU!

Those shells will straight murder a turkey, as far as you're allowed to speak of on here ;)

Lovett Williams would shoot those all the time --
