3” Hevi shot #5, 1.25

  Does anyone remember this load? I found a few boxes of this in my stash. I never shot it, didn't even know I had it. After numerous searches I can't find anything on it. If anyone has any info on how it performed please lmk. Apparently,.. When the weather warms up I'll be doing some experimenting with it.

My guess it was a short run of shells and they realized it was a flubb.
 
Thank you All

Was my go-to loads but in 12g, long gone, one of the reasons I went to a 20g. Good luck with them.

They are certainly not going to put up high numbers with only 198 pellets (nominally) in the load, but each pellet will hit like a freight train, similar to lead 4s.

My thoughts were the same. I'm going to experiment with my close barrel in my 0/U and see what she looks like. I have 3 boxes of em and might as well use em.

My mossberg shot those shells and #6s really well with a .555 comp n choke for years

Would probably be awesome in an o/u with mod choke for closer shots.

I think it's running a little tight on the bottom barrel. I'd like to open it up a lil.
