Born Hunter 17,743 Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 Anybody had any experience with 3/4grey 1/4 beddy? How do they compare to the first cross? Quote Link to post
lurchers 2,690 Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 they are alot faster than a 1st cross so they are good for bigger stuff and are bigger than 1st xs but just as keen they wont let you down Quote Link to post
