I didn't care for Steel and the little bit of BD I did shoot was fine down to about 30° . I don't know what it was about the Steel , might have been the Fiocchi cases , but it just didn't click . Hindsight maybe it was the W209s
4756 ! 1-1/16 oz of 1 or Bs in a CSD 118 with in the Fiocchi 2-3/4 cases . I can't even count the ducks that fell . Killed a few Western Canada's and snows too . With the 105 ct of Bs in a BPS special steel field it delivered 95-97 inside 27" at 40 yd and 4.17 ftlb per pellet assuming I was actually getting my 1470 fps at the muzzle .
I started with MEC wads , 800X and BB in 94' after the 93' season was a follow up train wreck shooting 3" FC 1-1/4 or 3/8 BBB ....... 1,2,&3s weren't readily available ...... The cripples I picked up smelling of almond and turning bright green , makes me sick even now .
Glory days .
PMC , Blue Steel ,and Kent Fasteel are loaded with the same components I was loading and the first 2 with probably with BD got so cheap I couldn't afford to load them . 20.80/100 vs 53 & 58/250 retail after tax wasn't worth setting up the press , making a run and stacking for a guy that had it down to a box a weekend .
