Dixie,I picked up some 2 1/2" #8 shot. I couldn't find magnums, but I found the standerd load. I also picked up some 3" #7 1/2 Federal ammo. The federal ammo is supposed to hold a tighter pattern. I'm hoping I have better luck with these then the Winchester or remington 3" shells. I was a little concerned about trying the smaller #8 shot but if you say it nocks bunnies down I believe you....DH

The "magnum" is the actual shot so it probably isn't popular on manufactured shells because it costs a little more. I'm sure you'll like the way the Federals shoot.
