In the aftermath and uneasiness created by the last rush of erratic, ultra-high velocity ammunition by other brands, Spectra Shot specializes in craftsman ammunition that is dependable and delightful to shoot.
Spectra Shot employs some of the same support that major ammunition brands use. Spectra Shot has been featured in Wildfowl Magazine and seen on The Sportsman Channel.
“Nickel-plated shot strikes like lightning”
The White Lightning Name | Pellets
Probably the most under-reported aspect of turkey hunting is the unintentional killing, wounding or crippling of extra turkeys when pellets stray off course. Lost pellets (flyers) are typically deformed upon firing, corroded or badly made.
A close inspection of White Lightning’s extra-large pellets reveals a uniform roundness. There were no outcroppings or defects found.
White Lightning’s pellets have a lead core and a thick, glossy jacket (Ni/nickel) that is much harder than copper and holds superior corrosion protection.
It is recognized that nickel-plated, hardened lead alloy (magnum shot) generates improved ballistics and resistance to deformation.
Lubricity | Friction Values | Penetration
Comparable to chrome friction values, nickel shot possesses extraordinary lubricity and penetration.
The author’s father-in-law revealed that when turkey hunting briefly resumed in America’s Upper Midwest, in the late 1960’s and again in the late 1970’s, it was considered important to call a turkey to ruffle it’s feathers just before the shot, to allow penetration, otherwise, the shot pellets cold be seen bouncing off the back of the turkey.
Performance | Recoil
Spectra Shot™ is a good choice for those who have experienced uneasiness or erratic results with ultra-high velocity ammunition. While high-powered and effective, Spectra Shot ammunition has the benefit of soft/slowed recoil and was very comfortable to shoot while testing. Spectra Shot is never hot, snappy, jerky or jumpy but instead produces a stately, dignified, blast.
