If this has been discussed, I missed it. Thoughts?

It was brought up a few weeks ago ok here. Only thing I remember is that 7.5's would be the smallest they were loading to begin with due to smaller being illegal in some states.

Reads on the website they're selling #8 and #9.

"These shells are all loaded with TSS. Your choice of 8 or 9 shot with 20ga, 12ga or even our 10ga shells. When all you have is one shot, make it count!"

That's good news then. I haven't been to the website since the first time it came up here.

I believe that it was Nitro that said they were gonna load tss and use 7.5 shot. They announced that before turkey season and I haven't heard anymore about it. Apex announced they were starting up and actually sold some already.

I think you are correct preacher, now that I think about it I know it was them too.

I sure hope so, so they aren't overpressured like all their other loads.

Nitro was the one that said they were only going to load 7.5's. Apex will be loading 8's and 9's from what I have read. I think I will order some for my 870 I picked up from 257wbymag this week.

It's gonna hurt.....


the shoulder.


Them things are deadly, but the ones I have shot just plain O'l hurt to shoot.

Can't believe I used to shoot a 3.5" 12 ga either though.

Guess I'm getting soft.

Post up the numbers when you have time. That's a killing machine which has been around for a long time for a reason!

try some federal Heavy weight #7 also, if you are staying with factory shells. If you want to load a few shells give me a call.

You're right BOFF, it hurt a bit. Tried some 3.5 in 12 gauge in a Binelli SBE with a Jebs 665 choke. 460 #9 in a ten inch circle at 40 yards. It might be overkill, but like what I saw.
