Brad93 Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 As above, pretty cheap so was looking into getting some. Also could anyone reccomend a shot size. I hear 7.5 or 8 is the norm? Thanks :yp: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yankeedoodlepigeon Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 (edited) Yes I used 7 1/2's very good :yp: Edited July 15, 2010 by yankeedoodlepigeon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markio Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 Plaswads are very good, break stuff and easy on the shoulder and wallet. I use the fibers too. Go for it, 7.5 or 8, doesn't really matter, whatever works in your head. :yp: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon R Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 If you are sticking to one size, I would opt for 8s. Eley Firsts won Sporting Gun Magazine cartridge of the year - not just on price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ossie1968 Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 I use the 28gr 7.5 for clays, very good and not too dirty. I pay aroung the £38 per 250 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badsworth Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 I use them regularly for weekend shoots with pals. They are good for the price but I wouldn't use them in a competition. They are also the dirtiest cartridges I have ever used - you wouldn't believe the cloud of clag that comes out when you fire them (I use fibre wad).

MC Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 I use them regularly for weekend shoots with pals. They are good for the price but I wouldn't use them in a competition.

B That is because they are not a true fibre wad, the wad is compressed paper and it disintegrates. I use them quite a bit and they are OK, I have never been bothered about how clean or dirty a cartridge is as long as it does the job.

Bloke Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 I use the 21gm/7.5's or 24gm/8's, (plastic)whichever is cheaper, they hit what I point it at, as they say, but I think the 28gm for the really long shots. The 24gm seem to give a bit less recoil than the 21gm, don't know why though. I pay about £138/thousand for the 21gm, and about £145 for the 24gm. None of them seem particularly dirty compared with the gamebore steel or comp x's that I have shot before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apache Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 They do what they say on the tin, but I find the gun takes lots more cleaning than with Hull CompX. 28G 7 1/2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
