You can always order them online from Bass Pro Shop. I would look into them first if you haven't shot them yet. I heard both good and bad about them, the bad being they really wear your shotty, and the good being they are laser fast. This season I am switching to the Winchester BlindSide.

That's a very hard hitting round. If you like that kind of recoil (3,000 ft. lb's more energy on average at the muzzle than an average 1,300 fps round), and you understand that it's doing damage to your shotgun due to the excessive energy, and you understand that speed doesn't necessarily mean more dead ducks...then have at it. But, shooting any 1300-1550 fps round should do the trick...and be readily available. It's more about you, the shooter. Just saying...I'm actually downgrading speed this year. I've been shooting Kent's @1625 fps for six years, and am switching to Winchester Xtreme's HV @1550 this year after shooting a box last season. I save almost $4 per box and I can still kill the same amount of ducks... I just got a case of the Win X HV's 3", #3's for $109 after tax, $15 online discount, and free shipping to the store at Sportsman's Warehouse in Rocklin...you can't beat that.

Midway, is another great online source as is Cabelas (& others) & can compare prices etc. I did not look to see if they carry or have them in stock however...Good Luck Frank

How far are you willing to travel? I work at a shop in Bakersfield. I can get 12 gauge 3.5" BB or #2 hypers from a wholesaler in Louisiana. PM me.
