Nice Shot is $60/Kilo. ITX at BPI is on sale for $117/7lbs. Nice Shot is offered in sizes down to 7.5; ITX down to 6. Besides cost, choice of size is limited. Both are soft shot and suitable for old guns. Certainly worth pursuing game with, especially the ITX as far as costs go, but I wouldn't want to shoot skeet with either. If one were to shoot 1 oz. loads of ITX, the cost would be about $1 per round, shot cost only. Stretching the shot to 3/4 or 7/8 would be worthwhile. Hopefully ITX will make a smaller shot.
