Ferret Master Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 The manufacturers won't always stick to the same brand of hull for all of their cartridges. FM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deershooter Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 (edited) Dont order new shells from siarm, they will not reload very well on your boman. You want fired shells so that you have the start of the crimp, new shells req a much better crimp starter than the bowman was fitted with look at claygames site or buy his cd its a mind of info and will give you info on what wads to use The best thing that you could do is to find some one to teach you about reloading. If you dont know any one you should come over and collect the things I am sending you then you could see how it is done. I have 5 different reloading machines and none of them likes new cases and I have been reloading for 12 years .I am not saying that you cannot reload new shells just that it is easer to reload once fired ones Most clay grounds will let you collect empty shells just ask politly and dont sort them out on the ground take the whole bin home in a bin bag and sort them there If you want to take up this offer call me you have my number Deershooter Edited November 13, 2008 by deershooter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windknot Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 (edited) Cheddites may not be the best to reload (from a durability perspective), but you can usually get them by the bucketload at any clay ground for the asking. So what if they're only good for another two or three goes? Edited November 13, 2008 by Windknot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikee Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 ive always found the B&P gordon system cases good to reload, nice thick softish plastic that crimp well, thay are readily available at any clay ground and C&G do lots of data for these. mikee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogfox Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 i use fiocchi 6s in 32gm, i think theyr great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George1990 Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 Only used Fiocchi's on clays, and they didn't seem to have the right feel about them compared to Lyalvale Express HV or Gamebore White Gold XLR/Blue Diamond. Weren't punchy enough for me. Used RC SIPE 32g No.6 and they're awesome. They don't arf knock em down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
