[toby63 1,236]

if your using 12g then 32g 6s wil do the job fine

[air gun ant 1,666]

i usually use 32g 5s but thats just coz i have them left over from the game season, when they run out i use "eley pigeon" all summer for everything they are 32g 6 1/2s and do the job fine at normal ranges.

atb ant

30gram 6's are fine, just let them come in good and close and don't move till the last second.

what choke is your gun

[kruby01 114]

get a big piece of wood or thick card and test your spread pattern so you know how your pellets are hitting at that range

[toby63 1,236]

euen though its not a multi choke it wil stil have choke.take it to gun shop and they put a thing into the barrels to check

Crows are tougher than pigeons, but I've had good results with nothing heavier than Eley pigeon, 30g of 6 1/2.

Sometimes though, despite hitting them hard and central, they needed the second barrel to kill them stone dead.

 

One time though, I accidentally grabbed an Alphamax with 50g of no3 shot in it. I've never seen a crow quite so pole-axed before! It fell out of the air on its back. 1/2 choke at 50 yards

[Chid 6,375]
