Default Bismuth Shotshells

If anyone is looking for bismuth shotshells for Camp Wainwright, I picked some up at Prophet River, and I am told that they have an order coming in next week.

I'm wondering why you don't use steel for early season upland birds. My guess is you did not want to use steel in a fine shotgun.

Exactly correct, I prefer not to use steel in my sub gauge SxS shotguns.

Default Bismuth

I bought a lot from a dealer and I've got 7-8 boxes of 12 gauge 2 3/4" bismuth 1 1/4oz 7.5 if you have trouble finding any. I need $30 a box out of them. The newer stuff is going $40+ per box.
