Cranfield Posted October 8, 2002 Report Share Posted October 8, 2002 This has been covered a bit in the "Fast Loads" thread. But, just to try to concentrate the information. What cartridge are you shooting ? What are you paying for (state quantity) ? Do you buy them from a Gunshop or Mail Order or what ? The answers might prove quite interesting.

Yorkshire Pudding Posted October 11, 2002 Report Share Posted October 11, 2002 Gents When shooting over some-bodys land please use fibre wads.Looking over a field today where i had been shooting a couple of days b4 i noticed some reminents of a plastic wad.Also bend your backs and pick up your emptys , this will turn shooting into an anorobic exercise . So you can tell this missus your going to loose that few pounds that she been carping on at you to loose. all the best too many Yorkshire puds!!!!
