    Not a big fan of Black cloud but, nice to see some steel offerings in 28 gauge, other than 6's.

    1300 FPS Loads For Geese

    It comes down to shooting skill, and distance. Now if only I was a billionaire, I'd by myself a nice duck lake.:l

    1300 FPS Loads For Geese

    One of the best hunter's I know loves the slow stuff especially in 20 gauge, but he's not your average waterfowl hunter. Scouts the day before a hunt, builds a blind that's almost invisible, and is a master caller. Shoots birds in the wheelhouse, at point blank range. I prefer a faster load myself.

    Divebomb dont like criticism

    It's not just about the eating of the birds, it's also about time. I've been in Canada for Snow goose hunts, and there just isn't enough time. To eat, sleep, drink, hunt, and clean birds. Cocktail hour/bed time comes early, especially when you're tired, from the day, after day, grind.

    I bet he's laughing all the way to the bank, with all this free advertisement, over 12,000 views on this thread alone.

    10 gauge wads?

    I've not used them. Joe Speroni, the late great author of "High Performance Reloading for the 10 Gauge shotgun" writes in his book, "Cheddite also offers 10 gauge hulls, however after thorough testing, I did not find them of adequate quality to invest in them and there is little to no load data...

    10 gauge wads?

    It works for me.

    Pintails going down on the river...

    Those are some real nice decoys, especially in tidal affected areas.

    26” 10 gauge

    True that, but so is the SP-10. Not as finicky at digesting shells, as it's brother, the Gold 10.

    10 gauge wads?

    What BBL? What Hull? it makes a difference. I've been loading RSI wads in 10 gauge for 35 years, and have never see any advice on using a mylar wrap? Not required.

    10 gauge wads?

    I have thousands of both, but for some reason the TPS box doesn't get lighter very fast?

    10 gauge wads?

    What BBL? What hull? It makes a difference. Don't give a R.A. if the slits are perfectly straight or not.

    26” 10 gauge

    May be hard to find. They don't offer them anymore. You better hang on to it.:)

    26” 10 gauge

    I threw away all my old Remington catalogs, but the short one I have measures 22 1/2" from where it mates up with the receiver. So it probably is.

    26” 10 gauge

    Gold lite or Gold?. There is a difference. The old heavy steel receiver Gold came in different lengths. The "New Gold Lite" with alloy receiver is only offered in 26" and 28"

    26” 10 gauge

    I've got one, and it measures 22 1/2" from the receiver. Actually not quite as useless as you'd think with a Terror .720 choke screwed in. I picked one up unused with the short bbl for $600.00. I used it last Fall and it was definitely easier to handle than a longer barreled SP-10, and was...

    26” 10 gauge

    Never seen a 28" barrel for a SP-10, or ever seen one in any of the Remington catalogs.

    26” 10 gauge

    I've never seen a 32" barrel on a Remington SP-10, or seen one advertised in any of the Remington Catalogs.

    26” 10 gauge

    Standard Browning Gold Lite 10 gauge offerings are 28" and 26". Standard Remington SP-10 offerings are 30" and 26" with a rare 24". I believe the longer barrels are big with Waterfowl hunters, and the shorter barrels are big with Turkey hunters. It can also come down to personal preference.
