Devon Minnow 152 Posted January 10, 2019 Report Share Posted January 10, 2019 Use it all the time, will shoot 9.5-12.7mm steel. Have no issues with its longevity. For me I would choose Orange over green because it has a slight lighter draw weight. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It’s about a fiver a meter mate and that’s around 125mm wide, so you can get 5x25mm strips width wise which gives you about 30 bands 25mm wide and 150mm long 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Greyman 28,226 Posted January 22, 2019 Report Share Posted January 22, 2019 Just trying a few different things at the mo, managed to get some 6mm black square stuff like we used as kids, in truth it's terrible and enough to put you off the catty, have just tied up some blue dub dub don't like 9.5mm steels could,nt hit shite but with 12mm lead totally different beast hitting really hard and accurate, have some orange dub dub to try on some other frames later here are the two I done today and having had a few goes recon the blue dub dub will make really good hunting setup were as the square is just to stiff with not much stretch at all 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Greyman 28,226 Posted January 23, 2019 Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 Having a little reshuffle have now put the blue dub dub on my starship and orange on my fav natty, orange certainly good with 9.5 steel and seems better in the cold than tbg, think I,ll probably stick with the orange for a while as an all round always in the pocket type catty but have a young forest full of dreys in small trees that will be getting a visit from the blue with 12 mm lead before the weeks out Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Devon Minnow 152 Posted January 27, 2019 Report Share Posted January 27, 2019 Never try blue I'm assuming it has a heavy draw weight than Orange or green Dub Dub. Avoid peach dub dub it is really crap even with little ammo. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Greyman 28,226 Posted January 28, 2019 Report Share Posted January 28, 2019 (edited) Yes mate the blue is heavier, it works well on an arm brace catty but recon it’s as heavy as you want to go on an ordinary fork, it also likes heavy ammo, really liking the orange at the moment had a few ferals last week with it happy days just got home and my latest little parcel from China has arrived, still think this stuff is the best, simular properties to orange dub dub and tbg but much cheaper and depending on the size of your loops you can adjust it for power and ammo size 1745 natural latex tube from China less than a £5 for 10 mtrs Edited January 28, 2019 by Greyman 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Devon Minnow 152 Posted January 28, 2019 Report Share Posted January 28, 2019 Order some blue and also plum dub dub should be here tomorrow just to try with .50cal leads in stead of looped 2050 bare back style. Just started using Amber 1745 in last few week cause 1632 is suffering in cold. Have used black 1745 in pass and didn't really like it. But the Amber seem different and shoots 8,9.5mm steel really well in the colder weather 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
