roughshooter Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 I am looking to load some 12g 3" cases with non toxic shot - bismuth or ITM. These are going to be going through a Bland side by side with full and full chokes. Where are the best suppliers (preferably midlands based) Many thanks in advance Regards Graham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cookoff013 Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 best look for bismuth and tmx, (tungsten matrix). sadly its a mail order job from claygame. it isnt cheap stuff. i dont think they even stock bismuth. here is a recommendation, dont shoot either faster than 1200fps. bismuth fractures easily, more so at high speed. even the new stuff shouldnt tempt fate by shooting it faster. tmx is soft, and shouldnt be hit hard, kills the pattern and deforms the shot. good luck.

roughshooter Posted March 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 I had a look at clay and game earlier and they have no bismuth but they do have ITM and Powershot. I am presuming that the powershot has to go through modern guns and is not suitable for old brits! (guns that is!!) Have you had much experience of bismuth and ITM and or tin???

Paladin Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 You might want to look at loading a buffer with your shot, with those full and full chokes to aleviate defomaty or crushing of shot. Paladin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
