so you guys mean literally 'wrapping' the ball a bit to tighten up the fit?
took them out today.
Seemed to work just fine. Definitely would be great for home defense but just not accurate enough at 50 yards or so for hunting.
Was shooting at about 18 or so yards and the...

Just picked up a MSR PocketRocket 2 (got mine at REI) today, mainly for taking out to the parks on a nice day...but that thing burns so hot it was really easy to melt a little lead in a steel cup and...

Same crap around here. Theyre literally seeing who can gouge the most and still keep customers. lol.
Im buying my ammo at retail at Walmart. screw these rip off artists.

So its possible to hunt squirrel with 8 shot?
I mean, Im not doubting their word if they said theyve done it...but it does seem like 8 shot might be too light to get the job done.
I'll definitely...
