I think everyone should email federal and commend them on their turkey thug load and how well you like it, I think enough voices will encourage them to produce a line not restricted to Walmart. In my letter I also expressed the need for a 2-1/4 oz 10 gauge load in 5 and 6 in a conventional wad. I know most of you have no use for a 10 gauge line but I would love to see it!

Great idea, but I get the feeling that they are enamoured with flite control wad

I  think they  test pattern  performance in a calm,  windless  environment.   most  likely ,
fcw works to  some  extent.  I  found  that  the  hot  center  kept moving  around in a  somewhat  random way.    might  be  2-3  inches off center  in  any  direction at  40  yrds.   

Personally,  I  think  the  wind  pushes  the  undeployed wadding slightly off  center  and  when  it does deploy the  shot,  it  could  be up, down. side or  side.

I think it's a great idea to email a company and let them know that you love their product.  Can't hurt for sure.  Too many times I think we take it for granted that the company "Knows" they have a great product, and we fail to show them our appreciation. 

Each to their own, but I love the FCW, as my gun loves it.  It works is all I'll say.

No offense, but to hell with the FCW.
