What's it choked at bud?

The current biowad offerings from Bioammo, B&P, Hull and Lyalvale are not biodegradeable in real world conditions. Gamebore and Eley's are biodegradeable, and obviously any paper based wad will be fine also. I had barrel scoring occur immediately with Eley's biowad, the Gamebore wad seems to be exceptionally sensitive to moisture which makes me wary of them, and the Clay & Game fibre cup does work but is a poor performer compared to a plaswad, it needs much more powder to get the velocities up and the patterns are much more erratic. The 2nd generation Joker wads look good though and they'll be available to homeloaders at some point.

Well I am sure about it, as I fired said cartridges through my new gun that had only had lead and bismuth through it and then found it had been scored afterwards. I have pictures of the scoring, the eley rep inspected it and admitted scoring had happened. Yep, braindead choice from eley and I regret not listening to my gut when I tried them. I'll wait until the new Joker cartridges with their 2nd gen wad arrives. I was a sent a few and they resist pellet penetration more than the clay and game fibre cup. They look very promising.

The Eley wad's slits are moulded, not knife cut. This causes big gaps in the wad where the slits occur. I fired off a total of 3 of their eco steels and as far as I can tell each shot scored the forcing cone.

They don't break down as far as we all understand it. They're made of PLA which effectively behaves like normal plastic outside of an industrial digester, though there is some evidence that PLA breaks down into microplastics faster than HDPE, so it's arguably even worse.

You'll be lucky to even see a BPS10 let alone try before you buy. If you see one for sale, buy it immediately and then make it work for you afterwards.

Probably the best pump action available if you can get them.

Use any lubricant of your choice and tighten them down firmly with a choke wrench. Chokes, like any threaded fixturing, need some pre-load to operate properly. You will not be able to apply enough pre-load with your fingernails. I've never had a choke work loose when wrench tightened, but have frequently had to re-tighten when I haven't used one

Womp womp. This is what happens when firearms ownership is a privilege.

It is standard practice. Even recent supernovas do not have the fleur de lys. Pay no attention to it.

May I ask why you are selling it?

Why is anyone surprised? Those that are pulling the strings of Keir are also pulling the strings of Harris. None of us live freely; tyranny and corruption are rampant on the Earth. There's no nice way out of this.

Difficult to get excited over the latest repackaged browning over and under. "Oh wow it does exactly the same thing as all the other browning over and unders before it with a slightly different appearance" Honestly who cares?

🤣

To be frank, the fact that FEO's need to be familiarised with firearms is embarrassing. That a person that has never even shot clays gets to decide what guns I can own, what I can do with those guns, and where I can use them, is sufficient justification for the complete removal of the good reason requirement. Again, I really think BASC needs to be doing more to try and get rid of it.
