I can't seem to find them. Every place I called has them on BO. I got my new Fox coming soon and need to stock up on clays loads. I also like the Austalian Winchesters.
Thanks. |

| They do seem difficult to find. I prefer to shoot the little purple shell myself.I was at the grand opening of Cabellas in St Louis a couple of weeks ago. They had one case of Estate 16 ga shells for $60. Mayve they arent making many. Try www.grafs.com. They listed them on the web site the last time I looked. |

You might check your local sprawl-mart. The one nearest me has them, the blue box Game-Shok 1 oz and the 1 1/8th oz Game-shok high brass. Closer to $10 a box. If you can find the 1 oz. load elsewhere they are usually cheaper than they are at Wallyworld.

| We've been able to buy GameShoks routinely at local Ganders. Last time I checked - about six wks. ago - they were around $7/box. You don't always have choice of shot size, but at least they're available. Off the shelf, you might wind up with 6s instead of 7s. If they don't have them in stock, which has been rare, they're happy to order - in which case you can usually specify shot size. They seem to reload fairly well, too. Jury is still out, for me at least, on how durable they are & how many firings they'll stand. But so far, so good. I've been shooting 'em in a '38 Hunter Special 16 & they shoot great. |

| I found some today at the local gun store, only 10 boxes though. Sportsman Warehouse had 14 which I bought. Are the Estates the same load/shell? I found some of them that look similar and have same specs. |

| I just bought 9 flats at Bass Pro for $43 a flat. They are the only place I have found that always has them in stock. |

| If you have one up there, Dick's usually has a few flats in stock. The one I go to will not honor the case discount on 16's. |
