I've always shot winchester drylok 3" #2 or #3...Now the load I'm not sure of??

Inputs and suggestions???


Wow you must be rich. Have you priced 3" Dryloks this year there a little rich for my blood. Fast steel, estate, Kents works for me.

I have never had any problems that i can think of from the lower end shells.

The only problem I ever had with the estates would be they rusted pretty quickly. Other than that, no problems at all.

I sure didn't know that. I may have to pick up a few boxes next time I'm on my way back from Cameron and check them out.

I dunno who makes them... I think it might be a local thing... Im not sure, I may have even herd them say its the same thing as Fiocchi..

I have even bout a few cases from a guy that comes to the hunting camp.. He comes every year with a brand called "Lavyalle" or something.. came out to 8 dollars a box for some 3'' #2's..

i like me some Hevishot 3 1/2 inch 10 gauge tungsten wen im hunting in timber....when im in marsh i shoot 3 inch x-pert hi vi's 2 shot...

X-PERT
 
Winchester X-Pert ( the one's with the mallard on the front of the box)

They are 2 3/4 high brass but only 1 and 1/16 oz of shot, 1550 FPS, I like them in #4 shot. They are fast as heck, less lead is needed, and they hit hard!

You can get them for about $8 a box at wally world when they have them.

I use to shoot all the big heavy loads, 12 and 10 guage, but I had a brother in law always shoot these and he could knock down anything I could. Made a believer out of me!

Shoot these with my Extrema 2 with the kick-off, and no more recoil, those days are over. I quess we do get wiser with age!!
