    I will never hunt buff in Africa, only here.
    The only game that I would like to hunt would be warthog, kudu, maybe leupold and some other plains game.
    Big 5 won't be on the menu as I'd rather hunt...

    That's interesting to know about the regulation, I didn't event think about trying different loads or patches in the different barrels.

    That's what I sort of figure about getting the 72, my eyes will be good for accurate shot placement out to the 75m mark, but most of my shooting is under 50m.
    It will mostly get used on Sambar deer...

    Pedersoli Kodiak safari express?

    Pretty simple question, are they any good?

    I haven't found any reviews on them but I'm very interested in getting one.
    Is it much better then the slug shotgun out to 50m or so? The shotgun is...

    I don't have all the groups I shot with them, I'm overseas ATM and will dig them up when I get home, but here are the slugs and a 3 round confirmatory group I put into a tree at 65m.

    Ive been using AA12 wads and .690 RB but found to get the best results I had to sit them on a hard felt cushion and roll crimp with a hard over shot card.
    I've shot that through a modified choke but...

    I've found the best smooth bore slugs to come from Europe, I have been using GB rifled slugs and getting 3 rounds touching at 59 yards and around or just under 3" at 100 yards, I've stoped casting...

    I've used hot glue, rice, corn cob media and felt as well as nylon washers.
    The best was probably the nylon washers about 1mm thick X 16mm diameter followed by hot glue on a fiber seat.

    I shot both the Blindside and BlackCloud on geese, the BlackCloud definitely hit then better up real high but the Blindside kills better with fewer pellets, it does daamage more like lead shot then...

    I'm a big believer that surface diameter matters, in smooth bore a 12ga is always better but a 20ga is less kick and the longer slugs will probably be the most accurate, although I've never owned a...

    That's an interesting sounding cut shell, I imagine it would work if the gun wasn't choked to tight.

    I hear you on that, for the money I've spent trying to create economical slugs at home, I could have bought about 300 factory slugs that shoot **** well out of my gun.

    But it's playing with them...

    It's a euphemism for old and poorly maintained but I want to sell it for as close to new price as I can.

    It's funny how a smooth bore can be so inconsistent, one barrel on my gun with a scope was good and bad depending on minor variations in slug build, the new barrel with rifle sights shoots everything...

    Definitely not as bad as any of my unpadded RB loads, they go through the base of the wad, the padded ones are a bit better then those.

    Ah, that makes sense, if I could find enough boards I'd try my hotter loaded .690RB to see how they compare with my Lee slug loads.

    I'm surprised by the RB, I'd have expected better from them.
    Were they hard or soft lead?

    That's nice accuracy from a smoothbore, I tried a few out and found GB rifled slugs more accurate then my 44mag carbine at 50m.
    If casting wasn't so much fun then they would be all I used.

    The trouble I have here is I can only get 2 3/4" shell's and wads so I can't load or buy the heavier 3" loads.

    I like watching the Bubba roundtree buckshot hunts, they get some good range with their buckshot, although a lot went into developing their loads and choke selection.
