i have a Browing BPS 10ga.
Winchester has stopped making the shells that i shoot.
Wichester Super "x" 00 buck.
does anyone have any idea where i can find this ammo. if you can find it ill buy whatever you can get your hands on.
Federal makes 00 buck but they do not have the "knock down power" that the Winchesters do.
thank you for your help.

Yep.....it's true. Winchester only makes 1 10 ga. shotshell as of about 4 months ago and it ain't 00 buck.
I have a couple of suggestions for you:
1) Purchase a reloader and customize the "heat" that you want in your 10 ga. shotshell.
2) Pay someone to load it for you.
3) Settle for second best 10 ga. 00 buck shotshell.
The good thing is that most reloading manuals, even recently published ones, will have all that you need to know to create that shotshell right in your own garage.
Now.....IF THERE IS ANY LEFT TO BUY ON THE PLANET, my buddy at AMMOMAN.COM will find it for you. I have enlisted his help in searching for any remaining lots there might be out there.
I'll let you know as sooon as he gets back to me.
ALSO, I know at last look that Federal was making a 3 1/2 inch 10 ga. 00 buck shotshell. I'll check for sure on that in a few.

Yep......Federal still makes a 10 ga. 3 1/2 inch shotshell that generate 1100 fps at the muzzle AND the pellets are copper plated. Bro.....good luck.....I'll let you know what Eric at www.ammoman.com tells me as soon as I hear. |

Oh....and one last thing......
A few years back, I found some 10 ga. 00 buck at a gun show that was made in Czechoslavakia (sp?). It was a 3 inch shell and I bought it because my buddy has a 10 ga bolt gun. It was dirt cheap and when we fired it (at prarie dogs), it damn near knocked me over. I'll bet it was hotter than anything you've ever fired.
My point is: check your local gun shows if you have them where you live.

He said "good luck".
His suggestion was to keep an eye on gunbroker.com and auctionarms.com.
