Y'all

The drive by truckers had a song (never gonna change) that went...

Daddy used to empty out his shotgun shells,
Fill 'em fulla black eyed peas.
Aim real low at your feet and your ankles,
And rip right through your knees

Does anybody have any first hand experience with loading shotgun shells with black eyed peas?
How about loading shotgun shells with rock salt? What kind of rock salt do you use? What is the effective radius of a rock salt load?

Anybody ever used black eyed peas, pinto beans, anything like that for a .12 ga load? I think if the bean hull got into the skin they would make a mess that would be hard to heal.

I usually keep my 12 gauge loaded with 7 1/2 bird shot, because I shoot skeet and I believe it is a good self defense load. Double ought slugs will rip right through drywall, plywood, and plaster, possibly killing the inoocent beagle next door. I think I can hose down a miscreant with bird shot and keep him under control.

Anyhow, I am interested in what y'all have to say about this arcane topic.

Thanks

They are indeed. But I think they were better as a band with Isbell as a vocalist, songwriter and guitarist.

Great Day In The Morning! That Buick was turned into a cheese grater. LOL I still wanna know why his dentist's neighbor pulled out some iron, then put the guy in the hospital and his wife on a slab. Sounds like one of our neighbors. Or my wife's relatives.
