Ferret664 Posted December 2, 2019 Report Share Posted December 2, 2019 Picked up 50 if these today and was just wondering how others have found them? Got the 32g 3s . Wanted to try something a bit friendly on our countryside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diss4111 Posted December 3, 2019 Report Share Posted December 3, 2019 I have used lots of these since their release. They are a good cartridge. No better or worse than any other. I've used the 3's on the shore and 5's on my pond and both do the job. I have used the 28g 7's on clays too but as yet do not see any need as I shoot lead with a fibre wad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mighty Prawn Posted December 3, 2019 Report Share Posted December 3, 2019 I used some 32g 5's on saturday, only had one shot on a mallard and it dropped so in this most limited of tests I say they worked - seem quite soft shooting as well but maybe that was the five layers I was wearing!!

dodeer Posted December 3, 2019 Report Share Posted December 3, 2019 Good as any other steel but their positive point is the bio wad which others don’t have Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually use 36g 3s but seeing as these are bio wads thought I would give them a try . Anyone know why they are only available in 2 3/4 ?

I have been using the 3" Gamebore silver steel which are fibre wad. Our landowner has said no plastic wads due to livestock on land. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One would expect them to be used in more of the range next year. I’d hope all their normal plastic wads are replaced by those Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
