Fabhui Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 I've been reading on here pretty much great reviews on the Hull Comp X 21g cartridge when it comes to performance and recoil but I was wondering how do the 28g stand up in comparison? Obviously I understand there's going to be a bit more recoil due to them being a 28g but what's the overall opinion on them from those that have or do use them??

washerboy Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 Shot them mixed in with a box of 21g,and couldnt tell the difference besides as you say recoil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neillfrbs Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 shot both but 21g don't recycle out my beretta ,not bad carts though 28g are fine .cheep as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim_gsxr1000 Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 Both are pretty good, recoil isn't really an issue with 21g or 28g far as I'm concerned the more lead going down range the better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandspider Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 Both good. Didn't notice much difference (not even in felt recoil) between 28g and 21g. Both broke clays well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
washerboy Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 I like the 21g in my side by side, still got a box or 6 left of intercomp 24g but tempted to get more 21g when I get time to start clay shooting again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phaedra1106 Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 Been using them for a couple of years, very nice indeed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderbird Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 I reckon the 21s are better. Used both extensively on clays in my CYL and 1/4 choked Franchi Falconet lightweight. My opinion is based on scores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaun4860 Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 Only difference besides recoil and price is velocity 21g Fibre 1425 FPS @ £163.75 21g Plastic 1425 FPS @ £155.75 28g Fibre 1375 FPS @ £189.75 28g Plastic 1375 FPS @ £179.50 As an interest the intercomp 24g are 1400 FPS, Fibre £190 Plastic £182.50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delburt0 Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) I honestly can't tell the difference I think it's psychological , I've shot both but made a beeline for the 28. But honestly probably wouldn't have noticed if I'd have used 21 as for recoil I shoot on a Sunday morning so most of the time I'm still half cut so more bothered about ear protection more than a punch to the shoulder I'm a big boy and been doing it long enough to not notice any recoil...

Fabhui Posted January 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 I'll definitely be giving the 28g Hulls a bash next time I need to buy some. Cheers chaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAMMER BURT Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 i buy hull comp X 28g 12g plastic wad @£150 1000, but my maxus wont cycle them as they are 65mm long but are graet in the o/u had some good kills at comps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HDAV Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 I shot some DTL today and do you know what I got better breaks with 21g carts than 28g trick was shoot them quicker..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Monkey Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 Never bothered with the 21g, the 28g are all i've ever used on clays, been very happy with them, never felt the need to change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerCat Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 Quite like the 21g, can't feel any recoil and break the clays just as well as a 28 in all honesty, if they're about when I get some more carts I will have some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnfromUK Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 Used 21g and 28g (all fibre). Prefer 21, but both are good cartridges. There is not a lot of recoil difference and 21g are a bit cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter_davey Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 used the 21g quite a lot on field based clay shoots - but started to notice a variation between individual cartridges - some were louder than others out of the same box - but this was when there were no other guns about at a dedicated clay ground. The caddy also noticed it and was surprised that some clays were being missed when they were hit the pair before - so they are cheap, popular among shooters and I do like them but I've bought a few slabs of Power Blue 28g they are nice and recoil is minimal.
