The results are in on the 2 3/4" Talon.......565 gr hollow base Predator slug @ 1250/1275'/".
At this velocity everything went to sleep...pressue and accuracy!
We will be shipping over the next 2 weeks, then back on orders coming in for Terminators and Predators.
$7.50 a box of 5....5 box min. shipment due to cost of shipping.
We will not make another run of "Talon" until late. Sept........James-jcgates@bellsouth.net

Just a thought! While some my feel that the velocity of the present 12 ga. 2 3/4" Dixie Talon's velocity is low.......let me say I could have pushed it up to 1400'/"......But, all the shooters that have tested it like that velocity/recoil/accuracy level. It is a proven fact that recoil and accuracy are related! When you are "hurling" a slug this size, within reasonable ranges, game will never tell a difference in velocity.....it will be dead! Also note the ballistics of the Talon matches very close those of the original .45-70-500 gr load. The midrange trajectory at 100 yards is only 1" difference in 1250'/" and 1400'/".......Run the .730"-563 gr slug at 1250'/" through Thornily (on the webpage) and compare.......James

Wait... Are you taking orders for the Terminators?

How did I miss that?

I must have been on vacation when that happened.

Was there any update on them ever being available loaded in brass hulls?

Dave and All.......We have been shipping both Terminators and Predators for about three weeks. Some of the fellows are playing with brass hulls.......see dixieslugs.com...James
