| I tried some of the new Boss 2 9/16th loads today. Didn't shoot but 8 of them ,but killed my 6 ducks. Didn't notice recoil so not a thumper load. I was shooting them in an A5 sweet 16. The new A5. I had the #4's. |

Wow!
6 ducks in eight shots, I guess they work. |

| I don't know about the ammo, but I would say the shooter works. Nice shooting, DUKFVR. |

| I don't shoot any nontoxic stuff hunting or otherwise. Summertime I burn approx 3to5 hundred a wk. Winter approx. 70 to hundred wk. Mostly shooting trap games. All 16 ga. I have couple thousand factories, Herters and Federals . Few thousand 1 to 5 times fired. All 16 only. I use my reloads for hunting also except for duck. Active 6's. |

| FWIW...I shoot both BOSS and Kent 1 oz 16 ga #5's almost exclusively at ducks, 'have since both first came out and see no difference in the two brands. |
