Did it go off? That was the first thing I said after pulling the trigger on Gamebore’s new competition load. These .12 ga 2 ¾" loads are a pleasure to shoot. A quick round of skeet was all it took to put my over/under and me back on speaking terms.

The one ounce load of 7 ½ shot delivered a very consistent pattern on paper and in the air. One of the best particulars about Gamebore’s new shotshell is the low price. Comparing prices at the local gunshop was a thrill to my wallet when I found out the savings of one to two dollars a 25 round box.

Okay, you say they are cost effective, consistent, and a pleasure to shoot, but what about clean? Squeaky baby, squeaky. The only problem I had with the Gamebore loads was shooting them out of a very dirty Beretta 390. Well, I have time to shoot or clean guns. Guess which one wins!

A special thanks to Mark Caron, from Southwest Shooters Supply, for the loads. Southwest Shooters Supply can be contacted as follows:
