I went to Bass Pro yesterday and they would not sell me a case of these shells as the guy said Duck season was too far away. He did not know what teal were of course. Glad I didnt buy any there. I found a website www.rogerssportinggoods.com and bought a case with free shipping.

Haha that's horrible. When did they get the rule "We can't sell you any hunting gear unless it is in season"? LOL Ohh well. All you need for teal season really is a fishing net to reach out and snag em wink

Yeah I had to laugh to keep from cursing, he said I could just pick 10 boxes off the shelf. So I asked if I got the case price for that and he said probably not. I felt like I was asking a question at w-mart.

A friend of mine in GA told me about Rogers. He said he looked at many, many sites and Rogers had the best deal on the Hevi-Metal loads. I am glad they came out with Hevi-Metal as I kept bouncing back and forth from Steel to Hevi Shot. Loved Hevi Shot in field just not at cash register.

I bought a case a couple of weeks ago at Simmon's Sporting Goods in Bastrop, LA and I received a $25 mail in rebate which was good for purchases made 8/1 through 8/31. If anyone purchases any in the near future, you may want to inquire about this or contact the manufacturer.

Yeah I bought 3 cases of Hevi-Shot at the end of last season. Thats the only shell I use for ducks. I have folded them at long distances and my wounded bird shots dropped by like 75% when I switched.

If you go to hevishot.com they have the rebate for a case or a box on there. Case is $25.00 rebate. I think it is for the hevi-metal only since it is a newer load for them.

With a $50 rebate on a case of Hevi-shot i believe i may try them this year. I was told to buy a shot size smaller than wat i used in steel loads, is this true? In other words i usually shoot Kent #2's, i was told to buy Hevi-Shot's in #4 shot.
