That would be interesting to see. Probably would look like a cloud of angry bees leaving the barrel.

I believe there are 183 pellets per oz with TSS #7

So how many ounces could you load into a 3 1/2?

You could easily fit 4 oz, I wouldn't load over 2.25oz. Beyond that is a crapshoot on making a safe load. I loaded some for turkey, watched a friend shoot a Rio Grande at a lasered 81 yards, bird dropped in its tracks. Was hit in the head, and noticed 7 pellets with complete pass through of the upper breast.

Damn, sounds like good stuff. Hopefully Nitro Turkey does the trick for me.

Nitro are very good, loaded with 12g/cc Hevi Shot. They do a lot of duplex loads, but I would choose a straight #7, plenty of killing power to 50 yards.

I think what I have is 5s. Had the same box for 6-7 years....

I think so. May not be that old.
