Has anyone tried this? I have shot the 9/10 duplex load from Apex the past few years and was looking at getting into loading my own. 9.5's are available and I was curious if anyone had tried this.

My first 2lbs of TSS were 9.5, all that was available when I bought it, shot them until I ran out, killed every bird I shot at and one at around 48 yards.

I switched to 9s hoping I would get less shot hung up in the meat.

No numbers for you as far as patterns but it shot well but I didn't notice anything drastically different than straight 9s.

There are around 54 more pellets in the 9.5.

Thank you! I have some 9.5s on the way to try out.
