Blindside Shot Revisited.
I said the stuff is not worth the money and did not
kill the ducks I shot in a different thread.
I did use it some for policing up cripples and this is what I noticed:
1. It makes big holes just like they said and if hit right it knocks the dog stuffing out of a duck.
2. The holes are about 3 times as big as the same sized round shot makes.
3. The holes can be as big as a 00 buck shot if the breast bone gets hit in the center and all the tissue affected is blown away resulting in a hole the size of my thumb, this is not good if eating vice just shooting is the intent
Accordingly, I intend to use the rest of the box for shooting things I do not wish to eat.
Crows maybe?

Since I have to use a shotgun on base, maybe try it on squirrels.
That's funny, I left WI in '65; that stuff is long gone.
You KNOW where to find some on your next trip up to WI, start snooping. I am sure Clean would not allow such a closet full of stuff to exist in your house:tooth:.
unless of course a wing is hit, then you have a cripple and that can be a problem with divers.

I believe I have seen that concept of square lead birdshot; it was used in some
type of spreader load to get open choke patterns from a full choke.
