Cooked a lovely roast duck tonight - then CRUNCH. Busted tooth. Shit I hate steel shot. At least lead had some "give" in it. Gonna be a long night, as it's sore as hell. Still - could be worse. Think of the duck!!

You can get those metal detector wands for that
Yeah - I think I will get one. I thought they seemed a bit wanky, but pain seems to focus the thinking.
sell ya shotty and get a 20g then back to lead:D
Not for long Sako. Its all gonna change soon Few years be gone you ll struggle to be able to use it. Globally thats the way it is ?And the steel sucks as just try to the salami guys to accept meat from ducks now. Lead thrumachine no prob steel oopsy no thanks
Just shoot them in head/neck with tight choke. You know the patterns right and yor eye is in when the head gets cut off. No worries about wounding either as even steel is.up.to this job :pacman:
Breaking a tooth like that is a bastard when it happens. Stuffs up a good meal and then you can't leave the bloody thing alone.
Managed to see the dentist today. Tooth too badly split to save, so out she came. Wallet lighter by the cost of a slab of ammo, which is a lot cheaper than it could have been. The 20 gauge u/o is still on the cards, so maybe next year. If F&G ban lead in sub gauges, I will still have an awesome pheasant gun.
