Got some Brenneke slugs for the Kerner early this week so when I went to the range Wednesday afternoon I decided to try them along with REM , WIN and Federal slugs . Shot three shot groups out of the right barrel with all four slugs , three shot groups out of the left barrel with all three slugs and finally a right and left group with all except the REM slugs (only brought 6 of the REM slugs ! <url=http://s50.photobucket.com/user/6pt-sika/media/16%20gauge/IMG_7111_zpsr0ym3abj.jpg.html> <url=http://s50.photobucket.com/user/6pt-sika/media/16%20gauge/FullSizeRender_zpspqnbkimn.jpg.html> <url=http://s50.photobucket.com/user/6pt-sika/media/16%20gauge/FullSizeRender%201_zpsgndbktif.jpg.html> <url=http://s50.photobucket.com/user/6pt-sika/media/16%20gauge/FullSizeRender%202_zpsyjgfuwel.jpg.html> <url=http://s50.photobucket.com/user/6pt-sika/media/16%20gauge/IMG_7107_zpsplwgwt5a.jpg.html> Now the right and left groups . <url=http://s50.photobucket.com/user/6pt-sika/media/16%20gauge/IMG_7108_zpsg9wcoag5.jpg.html> <url=http://s50.photobucket.com/user/6pt-sika/media/16%20gauge/IMG_7109_zpsrnbja0cl.jpg.html> <url=http://s50.photobucket.com/user/6pt-sika/media/16%20gauge/IMG_7110_zpsck3unvlb.jpg.html> I need to break down and go on and buy a set of NECG rings to be fit in the mounts on this gun . But at $250+ they may have to wait awhile . As to the slugs I suspect over time I'll try and kill a deer with each of the four but once that's done I'm going straight Brenneke I think ! Oh FWIW , shooting 30 slugs thru a gun causes one to clean a bit more then usual to get the bore nice and shiney again ! But the fact that I was getting lead particles from the bore certainly shows one that the hollow bases of the Foster style slugs obturate plenty !

If I think about it Saturday or Sunday I'll try and put together a few of the 7x57R loads with the Hornady 154 SP bullet . I have a few loaded but I wanna get some fresh ones loaded as well . And if that happens I may as well try those at 50 and 100 yards with the crude sights .
