    ah woody you poor cynical commonsence speaking and seeking romantic.
    these are the same people that tell you not to be a greedy gus but dont remove thier mag extensions for duck season.
    they count thier success on the number of limits they shoot and seemingly have access to subgauge steel that the rest of us dont.
    the number of times ive heard they,l bring it in if theres a market [ah no they wont nobody currently has plans to]
    yes 3 inch black cloud is available in small doses but its totaly unsutable for most duck hunting.
    im trying to get another load but given the importers talking 2500 round minimum order i might struggle.
    he,s getting back to me but even a case or two would be my limit.
    the reason the chopper boys got away using lead is it wasnt stated so on thier permits
    .it had been for every other ellesmere 12 gauge and up user for a few years but this oversight caused doc to spit the dummy penalise everybody and then play the ngai tahu card to forstall any hopes of a rethink for subgauge users.
    kicking f&g in the nuts was just a happy coincidence for maggie teching them a lesson for interfering in water and farm issues.
    but nobody overeacts like doc when dared to be questioned as the last word in conservation so they blanket banned all subgauge users medical certificate or not oh you black powder gunners are included to .
