Got a new Cabelas shooting catalogue today. Back page is all about New bismuth waterfowl and upland shells. proprietary burnishing/rolling process for uniform shot.High performance wad 5 yrs in developement ensures function in modern semiautos. lowflash double base powder. Hot primer. Now 25 rd boxes.Only 16 ga load is 1oz 5's at 1300fps for $32.99. Other than box size, has anyone heard that they're anything different other than the box? |

I think the price is a little better than the price for the 10rd. boxes but I sure wish they offered the 16ga loads with #4 Bismuth. |

+1. I recently ordered a bag of #4 ITX to reload for that very reason. Bismuth 5's are good on roosters, but ITX 4's absolutely hammer ducks and geese. |

Found the 10-packs at closeout for $12.97 last fall, but they normally go for $15.97 at the KCKS Cabela's store. The price for the 25/box seems to match retail for the components alone. |

Kent offers Dueces and Fours in a one ounce 20 ga. load, why couldn't they offer 4's in a one ounce 16 ga. load. I shot several wood ducks last year with the fives and they worked fine, but the ranges were generally short. I would be more confident with the fours four bigger late season ducks.
Now that the price is lower maybe I'll get a box of the 12 ga 1 1/4 oz fours to try. Or maybe I can find somebody to load some ITX 4's for me. |
