ben_burton Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 (edited) Hi lads just got my cert and been out and bought a Winchester SX3 camo for rough shooting. I got it brand new today. I have heard to I should put some heavy load thru her to start with any1 no any good 12G cartridges to use I've got some mammoth cartridges but is this abit to much. Thanks for any help Edited November 14, 2011 by ben_burton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bicykillgaz Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 32g no5's or 6's should be fine mate i prefere no5's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_evil Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 Dont need to, just use some Eley 28g firsts I had one of these in silver and it cycled 24's with no problem, if you really want shove a box of lyvale 30g 6 supremes through it, but theres really no need after 2 or 3 boxes of 28's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schern Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 I just started with 28s and haven't had any issues. Put some 21s through it after 60 or so carts and it cycled those too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for any help hi there,if its new i would strip it down and clean all the heavy oil and grease from the internals as most of the time they are coated in thick oil or grease for storage purposes.
