Breastman Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 #9 plastic-wad carts shooting pigeons on a farm says it all Its one thing being a lazy 'male-genitalia' when you're out in the middle of nowhere but its another level of ignorance at a clay ground when there are cartridge bins every 5ft. Theres a whole family of muppets (6 of them between the ages of 15 and 60) who go to a shooting ground near me that always dump there empties all over the ground, even on the skeet when there is literally two bins for every stand, i've challenged them on it but they just gave me a look like there was something wrong with me so i've not bothered since, if the owners not bothered and doesn't bar them, why should i give two hoots??

BerettaSV10 Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 Plaswads!!!? Easy answer on this, only use fibre wads for shooting, if shooting on a farm one should show respect for any animals by not leaving plastic around.

TaxiDriver Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 Plaswads!!!? I haven't started shooting yet as Im waiting on my SGC Application, I remember as a kid playing over the fields finding these plastic things sometimes in large numbers and now know they were Cartridges and Plastic Wads. As it wouldn't occur to me to leave behind my 'empties', I did already question the wad issue being as they'd be harder to collect and was happy to find that fibre wads are available and biodegradeable. So, although slightly more expensive, Its Fibre wads for me unless circumstances forbid their use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
