This was a box of 50 that I bought a few month's ago. With all the snow on the ground, I hate loosing my brass, so I gave this stuff a shot.

I was impressed! I ended up with 3/4" (5) shot groups at 50 yards off of a rest. I shoot at a local forest ravine and its only 50 yards long.

This is comparable to what my handload's do.

It burns clean too, much cleaner than the wolf crap!

As soon as the snow melts off, I'll go back to my brass rounds, but its nice to know this stuff works.
