Another source for non-toxic Ammo
https://www.backridgeammunition.com/16-gauge-1/
I recently purchased some, but have not tested yet.
They report to me on the bismuth 6s I bought the data was in the 1275-1280 fps range with pressure right around 9000 |

| Thats a fantastic price. And they have 4s! I was unaware of this company, this is a great duck load. |

| Think the 6's would be good too for my beaver pond ducks. |

If you read the "About us" part of their website, it appears the founder is a devotee of both the 16 and 10 gauges.
FWIW. |

I like the specs on these Backridge loads. Most of us have either light or old 16 gauge guns and Boss's 1350 fps is pushing the envelope just a bit too much in imho.
My next batch will come from Backridge. |

I just ordered a batch of Backridge 4's. Between these and my Boss 5's I'm in good shape for the upcoming duck season.  |
