Lloyd90 Posted March 21, 2020 Report Share Posted March 21, 2020 Is it true that GB blue diamond 7.5 diamond shot is actually UK size 7 - so 28g 7’s? I believe white Golds are the same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stonepark Posted March 21, 2020 Report Share Posted March 21, 2020 Yes, why pay £288 per thou for impax or more when you can get Blue Diamond for £243 per thou. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes exactly, Gamebore super game 28g 7’s are £277/1000, Blue diamonds £244/1000. Only difference seems to be super game is in a 65mm case 🤷♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just worry about what comes out of the barrels. The Super Game are a delight. They're very gentle on the shoulder and pattern well (low MV). I used them in my AyA Churchill (this is not the XXV, but the superior model that preceded it) which was 2&1/2" which I've now sold and replaced with a Webley and Scott which is 2&3/4". Fortunately, this likes the Supers whereas my other gun doesn't but does the Blues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
