Was wondering if anybody had an opinion on EAGLE brand shot?

The shop I go to has eagle mag. shot for the same price as the LAWRENCE brand chilled.

Jack,
It'll be a bit harder than the "chilled", not as hard as the Lawrence Magnum. Size is often on the small side, but I've shot a LOT of it with no problems whatsoever. Peruvian manufacture.
Cheers,

I thought the size was a bit small, I have 1# coffee can of each size I use out of, and got mixed up on the sizes and started weighing,and got even more confused.

$ 25.00 a bag, choice of lawrence chilled or EAGLE MAG.

The Eagle shot should give you no problems Wink

I've shot a lot of Eagle brand shot with no problems. It's what I'm loading right now.

Usually only Eagle or Lawrence is available around here - I take what I can get. If both were available at the same price I'd probably close my eyes and grab a bag - I doubt that it makes any real difference which brand you shoot. If one is cheaper than the other then it's a no brainer - cheaper is better.

I shoot what ever I can find around here. I just saw the first shot since Christmas the other day and bought some. The postman has been hating me since I have been ordering it from Recobs.
