Looking for some information on buckshot loads from those who have actually used it to take deer. I have tons of books and internet sources telling my what I should be using and what might work. I'm looking for practicals; not just theory.
Looking for loads, shot sizes etc.
The gun is a 10 gauge Pedersoli SxS with choke tubes; I currently have IC, modified, and full. I have a both FFg black powder and Pyrodex RS, and 00, #1, and #4 buckshot at my disposal (not a big fan of #4 in modern shotshells, but I'll listen to your experience with it.
Thanks in advance.............not planning on using it this year; will do some experimentation with loads/distances/patterns next spring and summer in preparation for fall.
