Cranfield Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 Clear Pigeon 30 gm felt wad No6, for most of my pigeon shooting. Probably the most consistent cartridge I have ever used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pin Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 HB pigeon are easily the best felt pigeon cart I have used, close second as has been said is the clear pigeon 30g, easier on the shoulder and a tad easier on the pocket - not quite the WHACK the HB's have. I know a few on here that rate them too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auto culto Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 hb pigeon for me as they do what they say on the tin, cycle great through my semi and cheap on the pocket too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobGee Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 By choice I always use 1oz No 7 felt wad, lots of pellets to hit the bird and very little recoil-great if you get a busy day(I live in hope!!!) If I am running out of my No7's though I use anything but do find 32gm cartridges a bit harsh through a lightweight Berretta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
young gun Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 I use Gamebores super game high bird in 32grams in either 6's or 5's depending on shooting conditions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the hitman Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 I bought a load of rottweil 32g no7 at £90 per 1000 , which are the business on pigeons . The price has increased on them so much that i'm back on the clear pigeon . That is not a complaint by the way the 30g no6 shell is a very hard hitting shell on pigeons and pheasant , and at a very good price .
