Coated bullets

Manufacturers of shotgun ammunition have been transitioning to steel shot for some years now. Also, one of the pleasures of having decent firearms is breaking them down or field stripping them to clean them. Cleaning copper fouling out of a gun barrel is not a tedious, time-consuming or difficult task. I field strip my guns every time I shoot them. Doing so keeps me familiar with their innards and workings, and allows me to examine everything for wear or damage. I suspect anyone who would spend what you mentioned charging for a shotgun choke is doing the same. If memory serves, at least one of my chokes is made of titanium, or is titanium coated, or something like that. Does that make any sense? No. It's pure bull****. |
