Close range crusher!! | 5/15/2016 |
I am 60 yrs old and have been shooting clay targets & upland birds since I was 6 and reloading since 10, so been at this awhile. I always believed wads made some difference-a little bit- but always held to the axiom that if you put the little dot, the one at the end of the barrel, in the right spot and pull the trigger, the target will break. So it is a matter of dot control right? OK, so fast forward to last week where I am in a weekly shooting league that likes to do --reindeer games-- style events. One of the events is something they call slider skeet, where you shoot a true pair of skeet targets from the trap lines, starting at the 16 yrd line and slide back one yard after each pair until the 20 yard line and then rotate right to the next trap line and repeat-for a total of 50 targets. As you can visualize, some shots are high aspect/high line of sight targets at ranges as close as 10 feet. These SPREADER-X wads intrigued me, especially when I noticed they are not permitted for registered NSSA competitions. Well, now I understand why. At uber close ranges, they excel. Using these SPREADER-X loads I shot this Slider Skeet event and did much better than my skeet skills should permit. So I headed to the patterning board and compared patterns between a factory 1 oz skeet load and a 1 oz load 18.0 grs Promo, #9s using these wads from a 10 yard distance. Dramatic difference in pattern size with the SPREAD-X loads having acceptable uniformity and I would visually estimate to have a 33% bigger pattern. I have no idea what the shot string might be, and would surmise that the pattern density would degrade rapidly past about 25 yards, but inside that range-they give a significant advantage in my opinion. | ||
