To be honest, I've been out of the shotgun arena for more years than I'd like to mention (too busy building a lousy career). Now I am back into it again. Have recently purchased a pair of evil sisters (Remingon and Mossy)..., so you know where I am going. But what the heck! Buckshot used to be buckshot, but now we have environmentally friendly stuff going on..., with supposedly more stopping power? Steel vs lead vs some white powdery stuff? Someone "wise" please school me.
