mo_hunter Posted March 19, 2005 Report Share Posted March 19, 2005 Re: 835/fed. flightcontrol pic try at 40yards as well. Some of that hole is most likely from your wad. Nice pattern at 25yards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spyderpancake Posted March 20, 2005 Report Share Posted March 20, 2005 Re: 835/fed. flightcontrol pic the wad will go thru cardboard at 25 yards??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DaHunter Posted March 20, 2005 Report Share Posted March 20, 2005 Re: 835/fed. flightcontrol pic I have found my......wad.....from the shell next too the paper at that distance, so i would think possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAbowhunter4life Posted March 20, 2005 Report Share Posted March 20, 2005 Re: 835/fed. flightcontrol pic With all do respect, every wad I have ever shot, no matter how close the distance, has never penetrated the paper or cardboard, as it will bounce off whatever the target is attached to. I have always found my wads close to targets too, but even if they do make it to the target, they are not going to put a hole in it. I am shooting Nitro Co. 3.5" ammo which is the hardest kicking shell I have ever shot, and I am yet to put one of those through paper. Plain & Simple, that is just a great pattern at 25 yards, almost as good as the Nitro/Rhino produces,and I'd like to see some at further distances too.

Slugger Posted March 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2005 Re: 835/fed. flightcontrol pic that hole was nearly the same size in the 1/2 in sheet of plywood behind the cardboard. It started raining on me shortly before that shot so i headed in. i cant wait until i get another day to shoot it ill post some other distances.
