    well good to read that. if you havent had much to do with steel before it will be lots louder and harder kicking due to higher speed needed.
    in senario you give,just be aware unless you heading home to switch out loads,you wont be able to use lead for the pheasants etc... or still have it with you when switch to ducks.

    Shot steel the last couple of seasons, was running Rio blue steel. It seemed to go ok but I'm keen to try other ammo if there is something decent out there. Wasn't too keen on the eley from the season before.
    All of the lead gets put back in the trucks that are well.away from the pond so no issues there
