Ballistic Products Nickel-Plated Lead Shot,November 18, 2008
By GK2006from California
"From what I've read, nickel plated shot performs better when shooting game. I guess many may find that arguable, but I believe it does and I think that's all it took for me to try it. I found that I got better penetration due to the lack of finding any shot in the game versus using lead shot. I also never relished biting into lead shot after preparing the game. Would definitely use these again in my hunting loads for both pheasants and other upland game birds."

BP Nickel-Plated Shot,March 11, 2008
By wheels082from Lansing,Mi
"I was disappointed with this product. The size of the shot varied greatly and was not very round either. I bought some copper plated shot and like it a lot better."

Small Shot,October 31, 2007
By Harshfrom Canton, GA
"The quality of this product was fine except for the size. I purchased the #5 size and it was noticably smaller than both the lead #5 that I use and the leftover nickel #5 shot that I had on hand. The size seems to be about #5-1/2 and was noticeably less fatal on SD pheasants last week. Don't know if it was mismarked, but if not, I would recomend buying one size larger than you need."

Shot pattern density,November 23, 2006
By ttclockfrom Middlefield, Ohio
"Excellent shot pattern with very few flyers. Hits target hard at 50 yards. I would recommend this shot to anyone reloading and shooting sporting clays for those hard to hit targets."
