plank06 Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Hi, had my single shot hushpower a while now, and just wondering if using subsonic cartridges make them much quieter. Iv seen quite a few mixed reviews about them, a lot Saying they make no difference to noise! Could anybody recommend cartridges they have tried and found to be good? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86inch Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 (edited) The best cartridges i have used are the Eley 2.5" fourlongs... non-subs. Edited! Ooops....... you wanted to know about 20b I really should read thread titles more carefully! Edited January 14, 2013 by 86inch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dangerous Brian Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 Have a trawl through for posts by Sitsinhedges. I think he runs a 20 bore hushpower. He may have a couple of suggestions though he probably loads his own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackinbox99 Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 And remember, what counts is how quiet they are in the next field. They may sound quieter to the shooters ears, but doesnt mean the are quieter some distance away. If I remember rightly, on the saddlery & gunroom website they have db measurements comparing different cartridges. Might not be for 20g but will give you some idea.

This thread was probably started because I had put 675 20g Hushpower cartridges in the other sales section at a giveaway price and the OP made an enquiry about them. Truth is I prefer my homeloads and that is why they are for sale, if you do want the 30g no5 20gauge Gamebore Hushpower cartridges you wont find them anywhere near the price I am selling them at, ie, £5 a box.

plank06 Posted January 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 It was just a general question mate. I'd have liked to have all the lot off you, but bit too far, what with fuel costs etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
