Hi all,
I heard back from Kent about 16 ga TM and here is there reply.
*********
Hi Nate
Good to hear from our customers, and yes, we do plan to still produce our Tungsten Matrix 16g. loads.
This time of year most places are not in for getting in quite back in stock yet, and we have to get it run on the lines as well.
One place that did have it, but we don't know if they still might, was www.lioncountrysupply.com (think you would have to call them) or www.ballisticproducts.com .
It gets more expensive to make, but we don't plan to phase it out.
Please provide an address and we will send you a Kent hat and decal if you would like.
Take care and happy hunting!
Kent Cartridge

Good to hear it should still be around for next season. With the future of Nice Shot possible up in the air, at this will still be around. |

Please note I did say "possible" up in the air.
The ecotungsten website has closed down its store till July, according to its website. Dan, from Nice Shot, on shotgunworld has stated that he is trying to bring the production back to the US, but has not commented on the Nice Shot forum for a couple of months. In one of his posts he commented how ecotungsten would not be selling it anymore. Just makes me nervous. You cannot buy it anywhere yet right now.
I have looked into importing the 18gm/cc TSS directly from China, but the minimum order is 10 kilo's thats a big order and a lot of $$ up front, but the cost per shell is pretty not to bad. I would only shoot the heavy stuff in my modern 12 and Citori 16, not my 1930s A5 |

Got a reply from the owner of Nice Shot on SGW and it looks very good to have at least some sizes of shot available in June of this year.
Good new for those of us looking for barrel friendly non-tox! |
