Post by: Turkeyfan on February 13, 2011, 06:24:38 PM
I have been shooting them for the last three years and really like the way they shot in my gun. But I am having problems finding them here in Kentucky. Where does everone get theirs from?

Directly from Nitro...but you better do it tomorrow if you even want a chance of having them for the opening of turkey season.

If anybody want to go in together on some let me know...I wanna try bout 3 before I pull the trigger on any substantial amount.  Just mainly curious to see if there are any differences in this year vs last year.  They hit too hard not to give em a look, but for the price I gotta see results

I am going to order 5 for my 20 gauge just to try. I am going to run the straight 7's. Started using them last year in the 1300. Ran blends last year and really liked them!

There is a place in Cullman that does, or at least did last year.

Tried the H510C w/ 1187 and IC .665 choke yesterday. I have always shot 3.5 Hevi Shot Mag Blends getting as high as 218 pellets in 10 in @ 40 yds. With same specs I got 258 pellets w/ the Nitro H510C. This equates to better than 18% improvement in pattern. Needless to say, I will be switching to Nitro this season.
