redial Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 I am using an older side x side and have tried Eley 1st select on some sporting clays 1oz loads. Any recommendations on other makes. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldfarmer Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 Hi - If it is an old gun just check it is nitro proofed!! At the shooting ground we tend to use either Fiocchi TT1 in 24g or Gamebore Evo (fibre wad) in 24g when we have game shooters with light sxs 2 1/2" (65/67mm)guns. We do have the comp x, which are also 2 1/2" but the game shooters seem to prefer the former as their characteristics are more like their game cartridges - well at least that is what they tell me. They all come in 28g/2 1/2" as well except the Evo - the 28g and plastic wad are 70mm (2 3/4"). Get a selection and put them on a pattern plate - it is the best way to see which one your gun prefers which is more important than what you prefer!! Guns are very individual!!
