Well, got my case in the mail today.
Had to open one to see the pellets.
Counted 49 pellets, mix of nr 2, BB and buckshot.
Will try one box this weekend on pheasant. Cant wait.
Got 3-4 new duckponds this year where this quiet load combined with the metrogun will be devastating...

What does that run per round if I may ask?


To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and call whatever you hit the target.

12$ per 10

Not too bad.

Excellent to use on them small duckponds when they come in big bunches and not to scare em.

The Metro Gun System was developed for shotgun shooting in areas or at times when noise was not a desirable effect. As a secondary effect, the Metro Gun System will reduce felt recoil by as much as 80%, and when used with special sub-sonic ammunition, developed by both Federal Cartridge and L.P.Brezny, eliminates the need for hearing protection. When fired, the Metro Gun extension, installed on a 12 gauge won't even set off hearing sound reduction equipment. The decibel readings are about 72db.

Is the purpose to reduce noise? And why?

No one likes a noisy shotgun.
