I was reading reviews on Midway, and it appears to cycle well in Saigas. This stuff is on sale, too. Anodized head in case you don't want your prey to see your bandoleer.

$1 per shell? That's pretty expensive. Usually slugs are at .90c a shell but buckshot you can find a good amount cheaper.

 

Winchester and Federal both make high quality ammo and are usually at $180-200 for a case of 250 shells. And if it's just for target practice and whatnot, I'd suggest Rio or something cheap. That's what I usually get. ATG had cases of Rio low recoil buckshot for $120 a few weeks ago...took advantage of that stuff.

I wouldn't consider this for practice. Do you have an aftermarket gas plug for your Saiga?

I have a MD Arms gas plug in mine. Never shot slugs, only buckshot and birdshot. Lots, and lots and LOTS of birdshot!

I have a new Saiga 12 and I have a case of this stuff I bought to split between my the new Saiga 12 (I gave it to the old man for Christmas, let him use the magazine fed one he absolutely loves it lol), my new 870 TacMag, and my standy-hotness M930SPX, I haven't tried it out yet but, it looks like its pretty standard, hi quality, full power, 9-pellet, dark green hulled 00 Buck. I can't say it'd be for practice (other than confirming cycle and spread) because it's , waht, it was $4.99 a box of 5 when I bought a lot of it, now it's appearing online and in stores for $5.99 minimum... but I'd load up our mags and keep it for HD.

 

(Having 17 Saiga-12 magazines requires alot of good ammo for HD )

I'm not rich; I just have my priorities straight. My brother has all my NJ naughty list stuff. I don't go to Utah too often, though. My shooting trip would normally have to coincide with a major event like a funeral, or a wedding, or a BYU-Utah game (aka, the Holy War).

 

One of the coolest things about traveling to Utah is that I can carry a loaded weapon concealed in my vehicle without a license. http://www.sltrib.com/ci_12345824
