Thats canadian money though right? Im not sure how much a canadian dollar is compared to a u.s. dollar....but here i usually get the xperts in a case of 100 for around 50$ american....black clouds are about 25 bucks a box.....i just saw some remington shells at wally world that are 2 3/4 #2 for 5 bucks a box....im just gonna try those for ducks this year...i used some remington nitro steels for geese that i had left over from last yr....i forgot how much they cost.

            Eat  them. You never herd of eating crow.


 No not really. I feed them to the hawks and use them for coyote bait. Crow hunting is alot of fun if you want to go out and shoot a box of shells up. Get a call and try it there not as easy as you think..

I can't afford dryloks or a would shoot them to, they are over 20 a box here, or i may be thinking of super x's,  I find the windchester xperts shoot really good in my gun , federal speed shoks however, I don't even bother with them they pattern so poorly out of my gun, but out of my Dad's they pattern great
