I ordered a pound of BPIs banded USA TSS to see how it patterns.

:o  So we're looking at over $20 a shell just for the shot.  :o

I have a few boxes of TSS 9's in 12 and 20ga. And several boxes of Longbeard XR in 12ga.I just ordered some Longbeard XR #5's in 20ga. Will see what they look like.
Should have plenty of TSS for this year but think I'm going back to lead.

Virginia legislators just proposed an 11% Tax on firearms and ammunition. Turkey hunters stock up on your TSS.  Good luck...

I guess they didn't think about that on election day?  anyway, over here in WV there's no tax on guns or ammo (for now anyway). good luck to the Virginia gang.

I don't think too many hunters voted for this for sure....

I can sell this and buy 100 acres of prime turkey land.

You have become a wealthy man! :toothy9:
Maybe I should move my TSS to the gun safe. :)
Love to hunt the King of Spring!

Very nice Lung, you like the 8 or 9's better, I have some 9's but never tried the 8's

I bought 8's because as of a couple of years ago that was the smallest size we can use in NY. Because of TSS they have since allowed smaller shot so I have stocked up on 9's. Honestly I see no difference in performance on birds. The pattern of the 9's is obviously more dense but the birds hit the dirt hard no matter the number.

I just checked guy I bought from last year, he is at 100$ a pound!  ouch, pretty sure I paid 50$ last year?

Dove load challenge might be coming soon!

Trap load in your close barrel for 70% of your shots, tss in your other barrel

Dtrkyman

Only have one barrel!

Winchester releasing Longbeard TSS, 17gcc so maybe they are making their own shot?
