Im guessing you have the market cornered huh??? Yeah, I 'spose so. I prolly got them rinky dink companies are running skeered. The market would be way too small for them I imagine. They'd have to charge $10 or $12 a shell to make it worth it. They keep trying to come up with cheaper stuff, and the trend is to drop the expensive, better performing high density shot based products lately.

Re: sub-gauge guns for turkey
How much per pound or bag of what size? I have been thinking about using depleted uranium like the military, what you all think. Then if you bust one but it gets away you can go back later that night and look for the glow. Vic

Re: sub-gauge guns for turkey
Hawglips, I guess you hunt alot of the states I do, Georgia, Nc, va and I spend some time on boards from those three states, dont post much, just read. One thing that has always struck me is how some people take it like a personal insult with your loads. I've seen Striker get some of that hassel on here before too. It is really weird to me.
Anyways I always enjoy looking at patterns and appreciate the work and money guys like you go through. Makes it alot easier and cheaper for me to set up and help others set up turkey guns. I haven't got set up to reload but if I ever get the time and spare change I might try some of this stuff out.

Re: sub-gauge guns for turkey
I am confused by the last couple posts, but I think what you posted is cool. Guess my joke about depleted uranium was misunderstood.
Would still like to know what it costs per pound or whatever unit you sell it in?
I have an 8 year old son and think this might be the way to go. Can lower velocity, recoil, etc. which could be good for a young shooter.

Vic The TSS loads are about $ 8.00 pr. round to load @ 2 .oz, and 1180 fps you get what you pay for and psi is @ about 10,000-10,500+/- lab tasted..... it gets the job done on them birds and i get to have 2x the fun loading them up...be4 and after a kill !!!

Vic Sorry I wasn't directing that at anyone here. I think if you have read some of strikers posts before or hawglips you would understand what I am talking about. It is a bit comical on GON or the NC board.
