Shotkam Posted August 8, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2020 I am just trying to crunch the numbers on reloading budget practice 20g plastic wad 7.5 shot 21 gram clay cartridges. At present I use Just Cartridges CSP 21g fibre wad cartridges, which I expect are manufactured by Gamebore for them Just wondering what a good combination of powder spec. and shot would be for this load and likely cost per 1000.

In a 67mm Eley case you might have a Fiocchi 615 primer @ 3.5p, 15.5grains of csb5 @ 4p, B&P Z22 wad @ 2.1p, 21grams lead @7.35p or free if made yourself. Maybe £170/1000 at worst or £100 with your own shot. Edited August 8, 2020 by sitsinhedges Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No landowner is going to like a field littered with plastic after a days decoying. As I said I use 21g fibre for clay practice and had some 24g fibre of the same when they ran out. All my posts talk about fibre, not there have been many. I appreciate many still have stocks to use up, so its a tricky subject. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
