steveshoots Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 Hi I am new to 20 bore shooting as i have only ever shot 12 bore for many many years. I reload all my 12 bore and intend on doing the same with 20 bore. I am in the process of building up a used mec jr into a 20 bore but in the meantime wondered what is the best cartridge i can buy for pigeons , ducks ,geese any help will be appreciated . Thanks in advance Steve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

getthegat Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 Gamebore. Lyalvale. Fiocchi. Agree, not found a bad one really. #5, 6 or 7s for pigeons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrowningDJC Posted January 5, 2018 Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 I’ve been using my 20 for game/pigeons over the last few years and have found RC sipe to be my favourite. second choice would be Eley VIP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveshoots Posted January 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 Thanks a lot i will be looking hard at all suggestions but the RC seem to come up regularly so i will be buying some and then also save the hulls to reload.

Big Mat Posted January 5, 2018 Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 24grams of 6 or 7/7.5s for pigeon, any brand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
