The Beater

No sorry. Could always meet someone at North Wales Shooting School, 25mins away.

I have 975 of the above cartridges for sale. 500 fibre wad, 6s 65mm 30g 475 plas wad, 6s 65mm 30g £180 cash the lot, no offers. Dry stored bought 18 months ago, I just don't go out anymore as my old dog is passed it and it's not the same without him. I'm about 10mins from Cattenhall shooting ground Cheshire if you wanted to meet there on a Wednesday. PM me for contact no or meet. Edit- need to see a valid shotgun certificate before sale.

What time scale do you think cartridges have before they lose performance...... ? I shot a box 25 year old grandprix 30g 5s in december and they killed very cleanly.

Yes I stop mid April to mid July. The woody is a beautiful bird, not a flying rat or vermin. It is an agricultural pest.

I have 250 boxed 30g 6s plastic wad put aside. Maybe worth few quid one day.

I was shooting a flight line with some old Gamebore Supergame HiBird 28g 6s today, very smooth and did a great job on some fast tricky birds with todays wind. No fun shooting heavy loads all day in a light gun.

Are daffodils were up on Christmas Eve, been in flower for last 12days Edit, they are always very early

Fixed choke gun

This carts are bit gappy at 30yrds with 1/4 choke, a lot better pattern with 3/4 through mk60. Still 19 pigeons in an hour on the rape the other morning before they fled else where.

Have just about used up all my original clear pigeon 30g (clear case) that I used for over 15 years and had total faith in, I go my local supplier and he has the new clear pigeon in 32g, which is to much recoil for me through light game gun when shooting a lot or it's these Power Pigeon 29g 6s, so the latter it was. If you have confidence using high performance game carts for pigeon shooting good for you, I don't have anything in the back of my mind when shooting, I was just curious about these new cartridges.

Yes, a job for the vernier caliper, my uncle has one. Be helpful if they stated it on box, I know a lot of them are using european shot in the heavier game loads.

Oh, bought some and split one open and counted 238 pellets in the 29g load, isn't there round 270 in 6 shot to the oz/28g . I always check a new cartridge, thought they look a little bigger, but maybe my eyes are going!!!

Hi folks, are these cartridges english shot size or european ?

Wouldn't want to pay the diesel bill. Or for all that hard wear. You got understanding bank manager then :wacko: :blink:

This is why pigeon shooting is so challenging, no one really knows 100% what pigeons will do on any day. Luck of the draw how you get on, but you can do things to improve your chance. Get someone shooting the rape and clover at the same time , and keep them moving. If there is a good wind the better I had the same last weekend, someone set up on the rape before me, so left it till after lunch & i went to a small wood bout mile away where bird sit up then drop on to clover along side for afternoon feed. Good wind blowing bagged 26 in in 2hrs on the flightline because we kept them moving.
