The steel 3's do seem to have a good deal of punch to them, in my limited experience. Yes I've tried a similar experiment and the cases and wads do seem to take a long time to break down. Not a bad thing as far as I'm concerned - better than the water sensitive eleys or gamebores for long term storage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I shall try some 3s when they’re available here as you say good for long term storage and damp days came across these as yet not tried them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

London Best Posted August 14, 2022 Report Share Posted August 14, 2022 I see on the box they are, once again, 70mm cartridges. So hardly “UK Classic Shotguns Edition”. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don’t say they are they do say any chokes though it’s a step forward which can only be a good thing a positive move by a company and to be honest I never asked if they were available in short chamber or other calibers I was given a box to try and accepted graciously Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
