Thanks for the replies
My shotgun (actually my father's) is a 50ish year old Zoli. It says nitro proved on the barrel, which apparently means it's okay for steel shot but not the high performance stuff.
It does have a stamp of what looks like a fleur de lis, but different from that Sideshow posted, it is inside a upside-down heart shape.
I'm pretty sure the bottom barrel is full choke, so I think I'll go with bismuth, but at $100/box I would probably be better off to buy a new shotgun!
Nah its not 100 a box. The Falcon stuff I paid 55 a box for
Fish city Hamilton had some for $60 a box when a friend went there not long ago..
14 Mallards tonight here in the Stormy ,Windy , Wet Manawatu !!
Patience Is A Virtue
use lighter loads of smaller shot and DONT use rem hypersonic .....
gamebore/kent/winchester/falcon all do a 30-32grm loading and they all kill well...#3 is biggest you should use in tight chokes
doing these two things allow the shot to zip through without bridgeing....think bottleneck traffic jam...less traffic= easier to flow.
10 mallards and 1 parry tonight between two of us shooting maize stubble Tepuke.
My first season on F&G administered land. Seems it all happens in the first few hours of opening season then not too much going on. Is that about right?
Last night in nz. Got 9 so my brother has to finish the bag job all plucked and singed. So will get on the plane smelling like plucked duck…..shore the other punters won’t mind……it’s only a 48hour round trip
It's all fun and games till Darthvader comes along
I respect your beliefs but don't impose them on me.
