    Two complete boxes of these slugs.
    Not shown are the little plastic plugs that go in the tail section of the dumbbell slug.
    Instructions say to use in cylinder or IC bore. But box says for full choke! Will be using cylinder bore (tight Ithaca most likely).
    Weight is in grains for complete assembly.

    Good morning Nhithaca, great find and years back the 7625 powder gave the very best accuracy with this slug, tho a tiny bit faster than Unique powder.


    Have fun loading them.
    Did you get your shell depth gauge ready?
    Load Unique powder into the hull, now push the depth gauge all the way in ( Be sure the gauge is fiction fit in hull )
    Now line up the slug to the gauge and see do you have enough hull room to fold crimp or need to add a OP wad like Powder Cup and a .125 nitro card between.

    With the availability of 3d printing, I would think someone could makeup some sabots from these samples and have a mold cut to match the existing slug and be back in business. Slug is cast and appears to be quite hard. Could even be made of zinc or other non-lead metal. With only 20 samples I will have to be very careful of how they get used.
