pigeon controller Posted June 15, 2019 Report Share Posted June 15, 2019 JDog thinking outside of the box , if the concern is shock to the shoulder is it not possible to add a buffer between you and your normal guns by adding a pad to your shoulder. This may be simplistic but would still allow you to take your normal eighty yard shots!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehb102 Posted June 15, 2019 Report Share Posted June 15, 2019 Dave Izzard's Xpad is bloomin' amazing. Trying to work out if I want one on my SXS. They re pricey, but I do not want to develop a flinch. My first gun had a terrible kick. RCs were recommended to me and I still recommend them. I can shoot 28g 6s and feel nothing.

grrclark Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 (edited) I have shot 21g CompX in 7.5 at pigeons over decoys, c.35yds, and they worked just fine with half and half. I do hope that you are able to continue shooting with your existing guns, without ill effect, through a change of cartridge.

oldypigeonpopper Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 hello, not sure what these Miroko 6000 weigh but i used some Comp X 28g 7.5 in my Yildiz SPZ ME yesterday that is 6.5 llb ish and very little recoil, it has a solid rubber butt pad, i would think with a ventilated type pad it would be much better as i have used a slip on type with an old franchi 12 bore with same cartridge, the 21g Comp X are well worth a go if not already done so as i just see it is a 2016 post.

figgy Posted July 2, 2019 Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 You could also try the lyalvale game 25g 6 shot carts designed for old English guns. Soft shooting but not as cheap as the compX 21g. If I wanted to stick with a ou I'd fit a Isis green pad. Should stop the shoulder hurting as much. I chose to go semi automatic and find them much easier on my back and shoulder.
