Mark were the shells you had tested 1090 or the 1200 + fps shells? 9000 seems high for low recoil, low velocity. I use to load PB 1 ounce shells with 1150 fps and they were about 5.5-6 k psi. Less is in a few hulls. Very nice for safe to shoot Damascus barrels.

Wow. 9k for a load like that. I guess they had to keep pressure up to work automatics. That's almost twice what I was hoping they'd be. Thanks for the heads up. I could load 1 or even 1 1/8 ounce loads at a lower pressure but they would not work an automatic. Good thing because I don't shoot one anymore.

Jon, it's one of the reasons to keep a sturdy junker around.
At $2.79 a box, who cares? I can find something to shoot them from. I'm punishing a 32" late Nitro Special, worth all of $200.00, with this batch.
I haven't seen $3.00 shells in over a decade.
I'm gonna say my prayers, and maybe they'll shed a couple containers of steel for $5.00.
Out there doing it best I can.

I just went to Cabelas website and tried to order some of these. It said they were back-orderable and currently out of stock. I could not back-order through the website so I called Customer Service at 1-800-237-4444 and gave the lady the Cabelas stock no. of IK-218437.
It took a few minutes for her to see the same thing I was seeing, but finally she saw the 12 Ga., 2-3/4", 7 1/2 shot, 1060 fps version still listed at $27.99/case. The free shipping ended yesterday but I still got 10 cases at $3.24 per box including UPS shipping. That's still very cheap at today's prices. Stock up now or kick yourself later.

Looks like Cabela's has pulled the listing for these 12-ga. 1 oz. 1060 fps low recoil loads, they aren't showing them at any price.

I forgot to thank Ken Nelson for the heads-up on this sale. It was nice while it lasted.
If you type the item no. into the search bar on Cabelas website, and then check the drop down list for the 12 ga. 2-3/4" 7 1/2 LR loads, it still shows them at $27.99 and I could add it to the Cart. So it might still be worth a try for anyone who is still interested. If you can't complete the check-out, then calling customer service at 1-800-237-4444 might still work. My back-order delivery date is around Nov. 12, which isn't long to wait at all.
The lady who took my order this afternoon at first said she could give me the free shipping, but then said nope--- free shipping ended yesterday. I should have said "pretty please", but am still happy at $3.24 per box. Thanks again Ken!

Just tried ordering another 10 cases and they are no longer available at $27.99. The lady on the phone told me that it was a listing error. But they will still honor all shells sold at this point. Someone screwed up big time! I should ordered more... Oh well...
