    Ok you shotgun slug guys, at least tell us the mold, wad, etc.
    HOLLYWOOD Collector Left hawg 405#, right one 315#, had my elderly neighbors granddaughter treed and why I got the call. Both charged, one from 20' and one from 40'. Thanks to the good Lord and Samuel Colt I won. May God bless our Lawmen & Soldiers!

    My mold is a Lyman Sabot Slug. I have some original Winchester Red wads WAA12R. Herco and blue dot are my usual powders. I fill the cavity with hot glue and stick a 20 ga nitro card on the base while glue still hot.
