    20 ga Russian Twister slug success

    First time out with this slug. Built the slug column using a TC20 wad with petals removed and screwed with the slug.

    1. 2.75” Fiocchi hull
    2. 19 grs of 800X
    3. Slug. Powder coated “TCU Purple” (Eastwood Electric Grape)
    4. Roll crimp
    5. shot through my H&R Ultra Slug Hunter

    3 shot group at 50 yards.

    That’s mighty sporty there BT! How fast is that load running?

    Well, wish I could tell ya. I’m having the worse luck with chrono’s these days. Brought out my Master Gamma chrono (after I replaced the cable) and it turns on, just don’t read any shots. I think the cable is wrong. I ordered a regular telephone cable and the displays turns on without actually turning the switch to the on position.

    In short, I have no clue.

    That is pretty good! I didn't know you were a 20 ga. guy too! I thought all your guns were 12 ga. I guess that's all I've seen you post if for 12 ga.

    I'm tempted to try one of those Russian moulds but I guess first I should test all the slugs I have loaded up! I don't need any more for now and I am sure I will be badly brain damaged by recoil if I get through all I have loaded now... more badly damaged by recoil.

    That load looks like a 50yard winner !
