Just announced, the new Hornady 20 gauge Heavy Magnum Turkey ammunition is a 3″ shell that uses 1 3/8 ounces of #5 nickel-plated shot. According to Hornady, the shot used has “…the thickest nickel-plating in the industry, which reduces fliers and keeps more pellets on target for dense patterns.”
The load uses a Versatite wad and is rated at 1200 fps. According to Hornady, hunters can use this to about 50 yards. MSRP is $17.81 for a box of 10.

Now if Hornady will apply its VersaTite wad to a 20 gauge buckshot round using the largest pellet that will stack in two pellet layers, they will have another winner.
any ammo is great ammo as long as the commie remains in charge
