I shot whole box loads of the Nitro 3 ounce loads in lead and economy and they never could beat the 2.5 ounce 210 loads for patterns in a 10 inch circle -
however .... the 3 ounce loads did put up some respectable #'s with a .685 choke , with trash can size killing radius patterns 300+ .Talk about a heavy kicker !!!! it was like a car crash when you yanked the trigger - but every single pattern was a killer , I didnt have to "cherry pick" my targets to find a particularly good one to show off - every single shot was a good one
If EM would make a 10 gauge mag -blend load that could get 320- 350 in a 10 they would take over the captive 10 gauge turkey market overnight - I myself would purchase a case on the spot - and I am sure others would do likewise -Ammo hoarding is a way of life if you are a 10 gauge user - I have cases of ammo buck, shot, slugs, turkey etc... when I walk into a store and they have it , I buy it all --Shannon
