SPECTRA SHOT

Postby rsfavor » Mon Feb 13, 2012 4:53 pm

http://www.wildfowlmag.com/spectra-shot ... hells.html

A friend of mine just gave me a box of Spectra Shot which has different colored shot for different boxes. It appears it comes in red, blue, yellow and green. Maybe more; those are the colors shown on the box. Now if you and your buddy both claim to have shot the same bird, you can determine "ownership" by color of shot.

Has anyone seen this? I have looked, and don't seem to find anywhere it is being sold or for what price?

No way I would shoot that crap. I can't claim ducks when there is proof of how bad of a shot I am.

Why not just shoot steel and let your buddy shoot lead. That should make it easy :lol: :lol:

You would actually have to count on there being pellets still in a bird for this to even matter.

i know this is kind of beside the point, but who cares? As long as the bird is down I consider it a success (and I can claim it)

I don't really care to discuss this product. I have no intention of ever using it. I am just curious; does anyone know how much they are selling this for and have you seen it being sold anywhere?

The shell has taken off this year! You can find it in different stores.

I think it's great that the company tries to claim that the coloring makes the steel heavier hahahahaha
