roughshooter Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 (edited) Just curious as to whether anyone has used the Evo fibre wads from Folkestone Engineering? I want to load a few game loads in Fibre for the 16 bore. I normally use Diana wads but have none left anymore. I am sure they will be fine but never keen on the confetti effect with some makes of fibre wad.......... look forward to receiving some feedback regards Graham Edited March 29, 2020 by roughshooter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonepark Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 If you are using an overpowder card as the seal, what the wad does after exit from teh barrel (stays in one pieve or turns to confetti) does not matter to the shot pattern. I use the Evo II wads in 410 and they tend to stay on one piece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roughshooter Posted March 29, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 I will try some. I understand the ballistics are not an issue but the confetti winds me up"...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walker570 Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 I use both an overpowder wad (FES) and the FES Fibre wad (EVO) in my 410 loads and not had any complaints from the customers they sem to do the job. I have been using them now for the three full seasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Modafinale Posted March 31, 2020 Report Share Posted March 31, 2020 I use this wad in 28b sometimes I get confetti but wads work fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gotgcoalman Posted March 31, 2020 Report Share Posted March 31, 2020 If the .410 wads from Folkstone are evo then I can honestly say I've not had 1 "party popper" in my home loads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoolinDalton Posted April 2, 2020 Report Share Posted April 2, 2020 Give John a ring at FES and he'll be only too willing to advise and help. I can honestly say that I've never met a more helpful guy in my life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
