Looking for Partion Gold slugs

Hey everyone I have been looking for stock on these Winchester Partion Gold Sabot Slugs 12 gauge 2 3/4" for the past two years and no one has stock. Is there an ammo shortage due to covid? Or does anyone have any they would like to sell. My gun only likes these slugs and I only have 4 shells lol. I know I only need one shot but you never know






Thanks

same boat here last boxes i got was 2years back at TSC store in Lindsay and they were not carrying them this year, so went to cantire in Fenelon and picked up some Hornady 2 boxes. ran the Hornady (3 slugs) thru while sighting in and were hitting on the mark but also ran 2 Winchesters slugs just to be sure

I believe they are no longer made as of a couple years ago

And yes there is a big ammo shortage due to COVID and all the ripple effects it has caused

Thanks for the input, I hope they are not discontinued, my Mossberg 300 rifled barrel works amazing with these slugs. The knock down power is incredible and the exit wound is like 2" diameter. I have tried other sabot slugs and my gun does not like them. Groups are all over the place. I am going to try and contact Winchester tomorrow .

They are not listed by Winchester.

I think they do this on purpose, I loved the Winchester Rackmaster slugs, guess what, no longer made :(

This is the reason I have 20 boxes of accutips stored. I don’t even hunt the early shotgun anymore, I do the dec muzzloader. If you find another load you love, buy it as cheap as you can and stack it deep! I haven’t seen those partitions in a while. Same applies for powder and projectiles, get the ones you use while you can. I thought 2008 would’ve learned everyone!

I have a box. Make me an offer. I’m in Oakville.

I did the same. At risk of being a hoarder I do the same. I use these in my Beretta 391 slug gun and I had 4 boxes in my gun safe and I was being worried after not seeing any for about 1.5years. This year I bought 6 boxes from 2 stores and it takes the edge off. IMHO ammo is like Scotch.........it does not go bad, never goes down in value, and when SHTF I would rather be looking at it than for it.

This season I used 3 sabots - 2 to verify my zero at the range and one to knock down a buck.

Had to sell my horde to my buddy...the day before the hunt....as he had none.


Hes lucky its his hunting spot I go lol, I still gouged him hard on them though.
