Anybody have experience with this ammo on a Mossy? This ammo is made in Germany.

I'll let you know in a week when I pick up my Mossberg 930 SPX. For what it's worth, I've fired about 100 rounds of this stuff with my Benelli Supernova without any problems.

i've used both the wolf buckshot and slugs in my 590a1. both fed and discharged just fine. can't say anything about accuracy, since i didn't pattern the shot or anything.

should be fine in ur shotgun. It's the euro length hull which is ~3/16" longer. Depending on your shotgun, you may not be able to load to max capacity. In my BenM1, stock 5shot tube, I can only get 4rds- the 5th won't fit because of the extra length of the hull. Same with S&B, PMC and Fiocchi.
Other than that, the felt wad is nice; leaves your barrel clean and shiny:)

Wolf is a Russian company but the shotgun shells are made in Germany. Go figure.

Hey mecam. I don't know what shells you've used in the past but from what I've noticed the spread with the Wolf Buckshot is not quite as tight as the Federal Tactical or Remington Managed-Recoil.

They aren't like any of the nicer stuff but they put holes in whatever you want all the same.

What's the spread of the Wolf from 15yds and 25yds? I know the Federal Premiums are very tight like somebody threw a baseball on the target. I've used mostly slugs on my bro's 870 cause that's what my range requires.

I didn't take an exact measurement but if I recall at 15 yards the spread from my Benelli was about the size of a frisbee.
