Steel shot, 3" for 20 bore?

[snipe]

I've got a 20 bore with 3" chambers (barrels are steel shot proof), and would like to get some steel shot cartridges for ducking etc. However, I can't seem to find any 3" versions for the 20 bore?

 

Any ideas? suggestions?

 

Thanks,

Here you go,

 

Remington Nitro steel is the stuff you want. Not cheap but it is very good. John Forsey will also mail order if you want it.

Thanks MC, much appreciated.

 

They are pricey, but I understand from the reviews that they are very good.

 

I am loving the gamebore mammoth for the 12g and was hoping to find something down the same line for the 20g, but seems to be lacking in the marketplace? or certainly in the 3" versions?

 

Any other options, which would be closer to the £8 mark as per the 3" 12g versions?

 

Thanks,

Remington Nitro Steel is good and my sons also use Eley Bismuth in their 20s.

Incidentally my mate used the wrong cartridge bag on a pheasant shoot last season and there was no difference in the killing ability compared to lead out to 40yds.

I reckon his cartridge bill was easily more than the day's shooting.

Funny thing was I spotted his mistake on the first drive, told all the other guns yet didn't tell him until the end of the day. That's what mates are for...........
