Hi enfield spares, To quote "Homeloader" from the shooting times - "with the standard load when using using all plastic wads the powder charge should be reduced by 10% to ensure that pressures remain within the safe service limit". You could do the opposite, if wishing to use a felt/fibre wad rather than a plaswad as per the load data. Regards, Davo.

Hi Conor, Are BASC aware that the "World Forum on Shooting Activities" has financed a scientific study looking into lead ingestion in wild bird populations? This study demonstrates that the current estimates of bird losses across europe, used by the European Chemicals Agency, were based on uncertain or generic assumptions. Which, according to the report are flawed. The report is titled: "Method to assess the potential magnitude of terrestial european avian population reductions from ingestion of lead ammunition". This report is available to read/download from the scientific journal PLOS One (Public Library of Science). It is interesting to note that a significant amount of the data used by the European Chemicals Agency to support their potentially flawed theories on lead shot ingestion, is sourced from the UK.

Hi All, New to PW. Regards, Davo.
