3.5" 1.25oz #4

2nd year shooting Kent, very impressed with the cost/performance ratio. I was a DryLok guy before that.

As for the black clouds, I'm not a fan of the pattern. Seems like the cheaper Kent or DryLok hold up better IMO.

Got a mixed shipping box with about a 100 or so shells of these.





Want to try these, but I've kind of gotten over the over-priced square and patented cutting edges on the black clouds and blind sides. Shot mostly black cloud last year, put em down but high 20's for 3# 3 1/2s is just turrible.

Tax free weekend I go buy a case of Hevi Shot. Yes, it is very expensive!!! BUT, if you ever shot lead you still long for those days. This is the closest thing to lead I have shot. Knocks the hell out of the ducks. Not to mention I can shoot #4's.

This, although I prefer #3. Not sure why, I guess I just like a few extra pellets filling the sky.
