I have bought federal 9 pellet 00 Buckshot 2.75" shells that come in the box marked "Tactical" only to find the shot shells themselves marked "Low Recoil" and not "Tactical" I called Federal and they said that the only 00 loads marked Tactical are in white hulls. I just found a bunch of Red hulled Federal 00 marked Tactical.

Does anyone know what difference there is between the rounds marked "Low Recoil" and "Tactical"? Louis Awerbuck and a few other instructors I know say the TACTICAL rounds group better... Any Comments?

Thanks,

Ben
