Pigeon carts for a semi auto

[markyboy]

try 28gram kent velocity they are a good hard hitting shell i use them for pigeons over deeks,for game like pheasants i would go with the rio,they are a good shell.

[chrispti]

Oh yeah thats right because it affects the timing of the gun............

WHO told you that **** Mr boy?

 

chrispti,

I don't understand what shotsize has to do with anything mate.

Anything 30 gram + regardless of shotsize should reliably cycle that gun.

 

I accept that the gun was not made with the intention of shooting 2 1/2" carts but maintain that they will.

I have shot my shooting buddies SX3 (same as maxus) with loads of different shells including 65 mm and its cycled them all.

Iv actually done it regardless of what the manual says.

 

The part about shot size was to answer the original question, ''Has anyone got any suggestions for 70mm+ reasonably priced carts for decoying woodies?''

 

I replied with ''Anything (70mm) with #6 or #5 size shot, will do the job mate ''

 

As has been repeatedly explained, the cycling problems are down to cartridge length, its nothing to do with the load size or shot size etc :blink:

 

Again, as I have already stated in an earlier post above, ''Although, some have found their guns will cycle the shorter cases. Yours might, after some time and wear and tear''

 

My shooting buddy's SX3 wouldn't reliably cycle anything under 70mm. Unlucky him

Cheers fellas, there's obviously some debate around what size should be used.

 

Going back to my original question, does anyone have any suggestions for 70mm+ carts (ie brands etc) - must be fibre wads.

 

Ta

As i said on my first post there are plenty of 70mm carts on the market ie gamebore clear pigeon & they do them in fibre. If you look at clay carts they are mainly all 70mm & you can get them in No.7 shot 28g & i can honestly say that the gamebore kent velocity are very good even the No.7.5 28g stuff. As for pricess it varys & have a look at just cartridges & look at the links with all the cartridge sites which give you info case length etc. Hull do good pigeon cart aswell & there game stuff but can be pricie.

Jimyb, thanks for asking as I wanted to know that as well.

After reading through we got an answer.

Some of you Lladies need to relax a little , everyone's got a opinion or experience but it's not always the same

As usual ITS ALL GOT A LITTLE DEEP for markyboy

I was referring to what chrispti had said. As for your ideas, well i think your operating on some higher plane

Your right about one thing though this forum does pull in all sorts

Markyboy its nothing personal and i think we have both let thing degrade a little.

Mainly me with my inappropriate GIF above

We shooting men should stand together.
