Title: Older Federal Grand Slam Loads...
Post by: mightyjoeyoung on May 23, 2013, 03:41:54 PM
Just an FYI folks.  It looks like Rogers Sporting Goods have the 3.5/2/6 PB grand slam loads back in stock...  I'm getting high 150's-160's with that load in my 835...

I don't think you're looking at the right load TSR.  Here's the link for the load.  I just took a look and it showed them in stock for me...

These are the old blue and gold box shells right? If so I'll have to pick some up. Especially at that price. Only reason I ask is the stock photo shows a newer style box.

Newer style red box but the shells are the same as the old red box loads-at least the couple I cut apart were.  I do know this-they pattern like crazy!!!

look for the triple plus wad coulum.

Fed rep told me that strut shock is old grand slam also.

All my old loads have grand slam on the box.

Rodgers pics are wrong with the write up. Is this normal from their adds?
