Thanks James, I have tried your 12 gauge slugs and they are "awesome" in their power and penetration....<><.... :grin:

After a great deal of discussion with my dear friend, Dr. Chalie Sharps (writes for TC "One Good Shot" and "The Single Shot Exchange"........we decided to re-introduce the British 20 bore load for rifled barrels. We both like single shot rifles.....I like the NEF's and Charlie likes TC Encores. There are two NEFs in 20 bore/ga......The heavyweight and lightweight (which I like as a walking gun).
The slugs can be ordered for your NEF (rifled barrel) from Dixie Slugs.....James

Thanks James, I will be ordering slugs for my smoothbore Tracker I's, both 20 and 12 gauge as well as my 24" smoothbore Handi 12 gauge barrel with a red dot or scope mounted, depending on my mood and needs....Which smoothbore Dixie slugs do you recommend for my smoothbore NEF's? The Tracker I's are both cylinder bore and the 24" 12 gauge with mounted sighting systems seems to do best so far with the modified choke tube and Brenneke-Rottwiel MP 2 3/4" slugs, I can however swith the choke tubes to somthing mor open if needed. Also, I prefer less than Magnum loadings, it seems to me that a well placed 12 gauge slug is better than a poorly placed MAGNUM load, and much easier to shoot as well....<><.... :grin:

The only slug Dixie has for smoothbores is the 12 ga Predator........James

OK, Thanks. Is the new variation of the Tri-Ball load up and running? What choke do you suggest for them for the best (smallest) patterning? Have you shot them out of any smoothbores or do you shoot them out of rifled barrels?....<><.... :grin:

I have moved this topic to New Product Announcements Forum where it should have been to begin with. I don't believe I've ever had a company try as hard to get free advertising on this site while being too cheap to pay for advertising. I've mentioned it and told folks to stop advertising this company and even deleted several posters over it.

NO at this time the company couldn't buy an ad on this site at any cost. In fact this is the LAST time I'm going to allow ANY posting on the subject. If I see it again I will delete the ad and the account of the member posting it. I am really tired of this company trying to steal free advertising.
