- ✔ Improved Pattern Density: Uniformly round pellets and high-density plastic wad contribute to tighter shot patterns.
Cons
- ✘ Significant Recoil: The 3 1/2" shell length combined with high velocity and heavy payload results in substantial felt recoil.
- ✘ Limited Application: The large BBB shot size may be excessive for smaller waterfowl species.
