    Fury 7/8 oz 20 gauge foster slugs

    Anyone tried these? I have a new hunter for next season and wanted to get him set up with my smoothbore 870 20 gauge with the fury foster slugs. Can’t find any data for them so I’m hoping someone here has cooked something up for them. I’d do it myself, but don’t have access to pressure testing equipment and I’m not quite comfortable enough to try and make my own load data.

    Spoke with him through some messages today. Unfortunately he doesn’t have any data for them at the moment and they seem a bit heavier than what the Lyman foster data calls for so I’m hesitant to use that.

    The Lyman slugs are 350 grains. 7/8 oz is 383 grains.

    I'd just use Lyman slug data.

    ^^^ What MSM said, 33 grains of payload weight isn't going to amount to anything.
