The higher the dram equivalent number, the more energy the ammunition has and the faster the shot will travel downrange.

Another bit of misinformation about Dram Equivalent. DE is a measure of velocity, dependant on charge weight. A 3 1/4 DE load of 1 1/2 ounces of shot is travelling considerably slower than a 3 1/4 DE load with 1 1/4 ounces of shot.
A minor oversight, no mention of F and FF shot (,22" & .23").
Other than that, some pretty fair information.
Dixie Slugs loads the .60 load that RMcL refers to, so I reckon that makes it a factory buckshot load.
