Hevi Shot-Hevi Metal
« on: November 17, 2011, 11:09:42 AM »
Anyone used it? If so do you like it. I am going to buy a case of 3 1/2 #2. I don't really care about the price of it. Want to know if anyone who uses it likes it. Thanks

"I don't really care about the price of it."   can you buy some for me for Christmas, you know since money isn't an issue...?   :chuckle:    I have not used it but I have heard good things about it. if money is not a problem then i would say heck yeah go for it ....a lot of people will tell you that sticking to the faststeel or x-perts are the way to go for cost effective efficiency... and that selective shooting is the most key to success, but they sound like a very effective load in my opinion. Good luck!  :tup:

The only reason I said that was because, most of the comments will be that stuff is too expensive. I just wanted to know what it was like. I ordered a case of it today should get it next week, time to whack em. Yeah I got a money tree I shake in the back yard give me your address and I will donat ea couple of cases of hevi metal  to you, would you like it first class or UPS?  :chuckle: :chuckle:

either is fine with me, while first class is often a little safer, UPS has always treated me well .....whatever is most convenient for you works fine for me. Thanks    ;)

I love pass shooting birds.  The stuff works very good as carries a long way.  Solid shooting load that hits hard.  I have shot 4+ cases of it.
Cut em!
It's not the shells!  It's the shooter!

Yep its the best stuff on the market (Both HEVI-Shot or Hevi-Metal). For normal ducks (and the occasional goose) shoot Hevi-Metal 3-inch #2. Very good stuff and puts em' down!

If price is a problem, remember to go to Hevishot.com and get the per box or per case rebate (s). If anybody needs help with the rebates shoot me a PM as I am a pro staffer for Hevi-Shot/Hevi-Metal/Environmetal.

  :yeah: I used black cloud last week for the first time and was very impressed. About 1/2 the price of HeavyShot, it was knocking them down with 1 shot.

What size shot and shell do you like for pass shooting? Choke?

I used to be a fan of black cloud but after shooting it a year or so I decided it was a very dirty shooting load.  Heavy metal is great just got another case of 3 1/2 inch 3s. Love it

Black Cloud is effective, however it is not 1/2 the price of Hevi-Metal, especially with the mail-in rebate from Hevi-Shot/Hevi-Metal. As an added bonus, Hevi-Shot is made close to home (Oregon) and I like supporting a more local company. Also, I have found that the ring on the shot (Cloud) really tears up a duck (both meat and mounting). Shoot all of them, then give Hevi-Metal a go.
