goldfinger 135 Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 Just started to use 24g 71/2 steel clay cartridges 37 pigeons today for 51 shots through semi surprised that they cycled OK,cheap I think they were £36 for 250,they seem to work fine on birds up to medium range, and also I can pass them on to people with hawks.Forgot mention I use all steel with 1/2 choke.

engraver 44 Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 Anything 6, 32grm for clean kills at least 3/4 choke. Just depends what I can get hold of. Quote Link to post
Ratsmasher 36 Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 I use rio 30g of 6 and for me they're the dogs on pigeon Quote Link to post
craig2103 9 Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 28gram 7 1/2s. Clay cartridge. Ideal on the woodies when decoying I find plenty of lead in the air Quote Link to post
rizla1 122 Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 iv always used 32g 6s any make what ever is cheapest when i buy them, usually eley pigeon, but just baught a slab of gamebore 29g 6s as they were on offer not tryed them tho. Quote Link to post
brucemyster 75 Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Clear pigeon 32g 6's, Remington 1100 skeet, don't personally use anything more than skeet when decoying, still get clean kills and confident of knocking them down to 40 yards. Will be ditching the semi auto for the next couple of pigeon sessions though to get used to shooting an O/U again now the pheasant season is looming, seen a few partridge on one of my permissions but now their on the dinner menu they seem to have vanished, typical!!

shropshire dan 467 Posted September 18, 2013 Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 I use eley maximum 34g no.5 for everything, quite a big load but they are great, rabbits pigeons and ducks out to 45 yards no hassle with my aya no.4 with 24inch barrels. Quote Link to post
Brickhill 28 Posted September 19, 2013 Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 Another vote for Eley pigeon 32g 6 1/2s Great on the pigeons but also very good on game. Quote Link to post
