[QUOTE="Montana'eer, post: 2485416, member: 113417"] I've taken a few dozen whitey's with 00 buck with my 12ga and they all pretty much all dropped like a sack of potatoes. Most shots are 30 yards. In the past 10 years I've had ONE 'dig in and go 30 yards and pile up'. The main difference is that I have never ever pulled the trigger on one unless I had a solid broadside smack. Why on earth would you shoot "strait to the face"? There is so much wrong with what you posted I don't even know if I should respond. Did you bother to pattern your gun to see what buckshot would do in your gun at 10 yards? This is 00 buck 3" at 30-40yds. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/7B8zdui.jpg[/IMG] Here's the same load at 10 yards (left side pattern)- [img]https://i.imgur.com/Ne15LFA.jpg[/img] That is a good pattern for hunting BROADSIDE. I would not use that to harvest a deer with a frontal head shot. The right side was 2 rounds of 2 3/4 00 buck I was testing in that shotgun. Suffice I will not use those rounds for hunting. [/QUOTE]
