quick question, anyone here use the sst slug? like it?
I'm on the fence using the SST in my muzzleloader this year. I've killed half a dozen deer with them but less than impressed with their expansion. Entrance and exit holes are usually identical unless bone contact is made. On the other hand, accuracy has been very good out to 200+ yds.
I love em. I have one I recovered from a buck a few years ago. It expanded great and only had a little bone contact.
Either way, I have not found a more accurate slug for my 870. Also the ballistics are just plain impressive. Out to about 30 yards good ol 1oz slugs will beat them but past that it is hands down for accuracy and energy.
Without looking I believe they are said to have 0" drop at 150 yards.
