    You're awesome. Thank you. Glad the Sandy Hook Effect is waning. A bit fast, though. I like the 1145s.

    I like 1145 too, but for that price am not complaining. I shot some today at the club, they broke targets just as hard as the premium shells. Shot at 24 yds. broke them good.

    In Illinois out of staters have to have a hunting license to purchase those.

    I live in OHIO, none of those stupid problems. Seems like to me to much bureaucracy, you can call them what ever you want. They are 1200 fps just like a trap load, I shot them Sun. at my club.:cool::cool::cool::cool::cool:

    I was always looking to save a buck. The first thing I thought of when I saw the "sale" was,

    $4.94 per = $49.40 a "flat",= $494.00 for 100 boxes

    What do the 4 pack boxes of the Fed "all purpose" shells cost at Wal-Mart? I think? about $21.97 or real close to that. $5.49 per box

    $54.90 a "flat, = $549.00 per 100 boxes

    55 cents a box savings? I guess if you bought 100 boxes it would be worth it but if I wanted to spend almost $500.00 I might think about buying AA's and getting the rebate.

    What is a flat of AA's? I thought CAC had them for $78.00 a flat. $58.00 after the rebate?

    100 boxes AA = $580.00 vs $494.00 for 100 boxes Fed "dove and quail" (same as their all purpose)

    $86.00 more out of your pocket.

    Sell the empties for 3 cents and get $75.00 back.

    Total saving on 100 boxes of Fed "dove and quail"? $11.00. Total

    If you sold the AA empties for only 2 cents the savings is $36.00 if you go with the Feds. Is it really worth it? Just asking.

    BTW, I did NOT do this on my wal-mart calculator.
