High Brass Hooplah

[fabsroman]

I don't believe in "high brass" versus low brass for lead loads. I think you can accomplish the same thing with a low brass shell as you do with a high brass shell. Heck, I can reload low brass to perform just like high brass factory ammo. So, the high brass on those shells isn't actually needed.

As far as performance is concerned, you would have to post some numbers GOB. For dove hunting, I use 1 1/8 oz loads at 1,300 fps. Essentially, they are Remington STS Nitro handicap loads in #7 1/2. They will work on most things, and if I could find them in 6's they would work just fine for pheasants.

Even for 1 1/4 oz loads, the price shouldn't be that much more. I definitely would not pay $17 for a box of lead loads.
