henry931 Posted November 21, 2015 Report Share Posted November 21, 2015 Shot some patterns with the Miroku 28 bore, thought it might interest some on here. Used a Teague Half choke at 40 yards. Hull High Pheasant 23gm No.7 Fibre approx. 62% Gamebore Pure Gold 25gm No.6 Fibre approx. 57% Lyalvale Express 19gm No.6 Plastic approx. 51.4% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

butchdickason Posted November 21, 2015 Report Share Posted November 21, 2015 I use the Hull 23gm 6,s with quarter and half choke, kill very well. Butch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figgy Posted November 27, 2015 Report Share Posted November 27, 2015 Great patterns nothing would get through them. I've smashed clays to little bits at silly distances with my 28bore they hold a good pattern. So anything game bird size is going to be hit with plenty at moderate ranges.

sishyplops Posted November 28, 2015 Report Share Posted November 28, 2015 40 yards ! Seriously ? Wow that top high pheasant load is unreal, I'd better get a 28 gauge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest cookoff013 Posted November 29, 2015 Report Share Posted November 29, 2015 It's an odd gauge really. It's one that never had magnumitus. Never went 3". Even though the specs are their. I'm very ashamed to have fired less than 100 28ga shells. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underdog Posted November 29, 2015 Report Share Posted November 29, 2015 Think it started as a 2&1/2" case though but am I right in thinking most cases are 2&3/4"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshwarrior Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 Think it started as a 2&1/2" case though but am I right in thinking most cases are 2&3/4"? Your correct my gun and lots of others have 3" chammbers but I've yet to see a 3" cartridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest cookoff013 Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 It's because the shell manufacturer s are not crazy. There is 3.5" 20gauge specs too. But gunmakers no make any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
