Last year, I bought up all my club's Bismuth shells in 20 and 28 to be used for quail and pheasant. My club mandates non-toxic for birds.

I'm about out of 20Ga. I don't like steel's lack of killing power (my perception) and I worry about it's effect on my fine guns if the cup/wad is defective.

The Hevi-shot Classic only comes in duck & goose loads. I like a light load and 7 1/2 shot for quail and released pheasant.

Any source for Bismuth shells yet? Any upland load alternatives to steel.
