allenyeates 3 Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 Gamebore clear pigeon 30g No.6 for me everytime. But must say that I am currently using Hull cartridge loaded 28g paper cases that were given to me, and if money was no object I would use these all the time, suit my AYA Yeomen down to the ground.

Up to £200 / 1000 its a con! Try to find a shooting ground with end of line 28 7's saw some at £125 / 1000 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
