This video details a patterning test of B&P Green Core shotshells, specifically the 7.5 High Brass load. Instructor Chris Cerino demonstrates the importance of antimony content for pellet hardness and pattern consistency. The test highlights the biodegradable, sinking wads as an environmental benefit. Cerino provides insights into shooting technique for accurate patterning and evaluates the results, concluding the shells offer consistent performance and a soft shooting experience.

Quick Summary

B&P Green Core shotshells offer consistent patterns due to their 5% antimony content, which hardens the shot pellets for better flight. They also feature biodegradable, sinking wads for environmental benefits. The ammunition is noted for its soft shooting feel, aiding in accuracy during patterning tests.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes B&P Green Core shotshells provide consistent patterns?

B&P Green Core shotshells utilize 5% antimony in their shot pellets. This higher antimony content makes the lead shot harder, helping it retain its spherical shape during firing. This improved pellet integrity leads to more consistent flight and tighter, more predictable patterns downrange.

What is the environmental benefit of B&P Green Core shotshell wads?

A key feature of B&P Green Core shotshells is their biodegradable wads, which are designed to sink in water. This is a significant environmental advantage, as it prevents plastic wads from floating and polluting fishing ponds or golf courses after shooting activities.

How does the antimony content affect shotgun patterning?

The 5% antimony in the shot pellets increases their hardness. Harder pellets are less likely to deform upon firing, maintaining their aerodynamic shape for a longer duration. This results in a more consistent pellet flight path and a tighter, more uniform pattern on the target.

What is the recommended setup for testing shotgun shell patterns?

For testing shotgun shell patterns, it is recommended to use a shotgun with a modified choke and set up patterning targets at a distance of 30 yards. This setup allows for a clear evaluation of the shot spread and consistency of the ammunition.
