Patterns great and use 5’s on ducks -2’s on geese. Heavy hitter and we’ll worth the money. Only negative I’ve had are 2 misfires with dented primer and gun didn’t go off. Missed out on a duck and volley on geese over decoy’s. Called boss and said it must be dirty firing pin. Gun was brand new Beretta a400 extreme plus and has fired/cycled every other brand of shell out there. Must have been a bad lot but still think highly enough of quality she’ll to keep purchasing. Other than tungsten, these shells have best stopping power out there for reasonable price.

My shirts are both marked 100% cotton but are big enough for me. Comfortable, and good looking bring questions from the gym to restaurants. "What's a Boss?", cool " your dog is named Boss?" awesome! What's Biz or bismuth? Sometimes it's nice being the "old guy" - "well remember when we could hunt with lead?"

good addition to my boss gear tee shirts.. but.. description says 50/50 cotton polyester blend.. but.. the tee shirt I received was 100% cotton.. fyi

Love the shotshells. They pattern nicely, hit hard and run flawlessly in my new production A5 (I’ve had issues with other shotshells. Even with 1oz game loads) Two dislikes: Can you please package them in boxes with a label like civilized human beings (after a few miles in upland country, the writing started to wear off) It would be nice if you sold them in a case of 250 like everyone else does.

Took a case of #5s on my last out of state hunt and shot nearly the whole case. Inside 40 yards ducks did not stand a chance. Chose #5s as we were shooting teal all the way up to geese. Has a little more recoil but controllable. Outside 40yards I didn’t see any advantage as I still had some cripples but that’s expected at a distance that far. A little expensive to use on everyday hunts, but will buy another case for my out of state hunts.

Have not had a chance to shoot these yet but as a long time boss shell buyer of multiple gauges I figured I would leave a review from just the unboxing . Shipping - awesome and as always it was crazy fast . Shells - all were in good condition with tight crimps , my only complaint is the new nickel heads on the shells. I prefer the taller brass head . I am fully aware of the function and purpose of the head length going all the way back to paper but still prefer the taller version . She'll pouch - I have a stack of these and the one I received with this last bulk order is not even in contention with the others . Probably not something I would ever use , especially with shells that are not water sealed. Disappointing quality on that . Other than that I am sure these #1 loads will be a train wreck on the snow geese !

I understand it is just a cosmetic thing but it looks better with the Higher Brass Brass vs the silver. I know it is cosmetic!

Last season was my first with these shells. Due to issues with massive amounts of snow and a dog that struggled, we were unable to shoot the usual amount of birds and the shells are a different load and velocity than the heavy metal I was using. With this said, when we felt good about the shots hitting the birds, they were harvested effectively. Looking forward to a years worth of using them.

First case was a 5 star excellent high brass load! Then second case has the low silver base looks like a dove load. At first glance seams like boss is making a cheaper load and selling it at a higher price. Hints the 4star. You never see this low base load in any pictures in any advertisements, wonder if I got the wrong case?

The shells arrived in a plastic bag inside of a large box, apparently when you purchase 200 they do not come in a shell box like most shells that you buy,makes them a little bit harder to store. One of the shells had the crimp open and the shot had spilled out in the bag,maybe quality control could be better. I did pattern some of the shells and the patterns look great.I only gave 4 stars because of the defective shell
