Cheap Slugs -- Hurry!

Hit a Dick's Sporting Goods in Durham, NC and
picked up two cases of the Brenneke KO slugs
for $1.49 a box.

Original 1-1/8oz Brennekes with the attached
felt wad were also on sale for $2.99.

(Call first to make sure this was not just a
local sale or clerical mistake!)

Thanks, Laisse, I've already gotten about 140 around the house. I may pick up some more, but first I want to try some out at 100 yards.

FYI, this slug is the very first one that shoots equally well in both of my slug shooting 870s.

Try any in the Beretta?

That's what I had in the trunk (was heading to the range when I dropped by the store). Got only about .25" smudging from the wad at 100 yards, so like I mentioned before they're probably flying true out to around 90 yards from a cylinder bore. I'll do more detailed testing on a day when it's not pouring down rain.

But they are DEFINITELY worth 30 cents a bang.
