    Federal Flitecontrol 00 Buck?

    Anyone using it?

    I have heard that it is really the cat's meow for patterning 00 buck.

        This closely matches the results with all of my shotguns.

          Awesome stuff. Low recoil and very tight patterning in most shotguns, due to the Flight Control wad.

            Very effective when you don't have screw-in chokes. You can find this stuff by the 250-rd box at the Miwall booth for a good price.

                Very nice and tight patterns, can't go wrong with these.

                  One ragged hole is the consistent result from 10 yards or less with my Mossberg 500 18.5 inch Improved Cylinder and with my Remington 870P 18.5 inch Cylinder. At 25 yards all pellets are within the 7 ring of a B-27, with only an occasional flyer.

                  Very good ammo for the very specific purpose of personal defense.

                    worth tracking down and buying. it is noteworthy that this ammo extends distance of effective range for buckshot.

                      The ammo is outstanding and extends the effective range of buckshot.

                        It's been known to punch about the same size hole as the wad on occasion, great stuff.

                          Thank you guys for the feedback!

                          What do you guys think the max Flitecontrol 00 buck shot range with all pellets on a B-27 would be?

                            I've not shot it past 25 yards, but these guys did.....
