At 200 yards, I shoot, Count One thousand, two thousand, three thousand and Ka-chuck. I wish they made tracers for 500Ga slugs. I would like the see the tracr ark.

Actually there is a company called Hi Vel that makes specialty ammo. The make tracers and they sell the stuff to make your own tracers. They have white, red and green tracer chemicals you can purchase. It does not look difficult.
