Just got a great deal on 25 boxes of 16ga (10 per box) # 5 Tungsten Matrix. $325 CDN funds. Will # 5 be ok dor decoyed blacks & mallards?
Anyone have experience with these? |

| As long as your decoys are inside 65-70 yards you will be fine. |

Great buy!!! It can be a 1 1/16 oz. or a 1 1/4 oz. load and do the job for you. I haven't found a duck or pheasant that wouldn't fall with in range. You will do fine.

Part of being on this board is letting your fellow BB members on some good deals. Where did you find the Kent TM at that price??
Thanks |

Actually, it was a private deal with a guy that took then on trade. At $45.00 a box locally, I Jumped at the offer. Actually I got 27 boxes. Should last me a while. 
Cheers, John |

It's nice when you can come across a good deal and can take advantage of the situation...
Good shooting and enjoy your TM... |

| You will be more than pleased at the terminal performance of the TM #5 over decoys. I assume they were 1 1/16oz? Those were a little faster, about 1300+fps. They work beautifully on decoying ducks. |
