Picked up some of these Federal Premium 00 Buck rounds (2.75"), and hear that these flight control wads are are supposed to work well at keeping the shot super tight after leaving the barrel. Normally they are used for defense or so-called tactical work.
Coupled with a full choke, these could maybe raise your ethical distance for deer from around 35 yards to 45 or 50 perhaps, and act like a frangible slug (essentially) out to about 25 yards.
Any data on this? I'd want at least six or seven of the nine 00 pellets in the kill zone to stay ethical and down the game quickly. Wonder how far you can go out and maintain 7 of 9 inside ten inches?
