Yeah co-incidentally, I watched the same vid about 2 weeks ago. Look very very good if the video is anything to go by. Only issue with a pro shooter is you never about sponsorship. Quote Link to post

Atb mate You can't use fibre with steel shot. Too much barrel wear. The whole point of a cup rather than a wad with steel is it prevents contact between the barrel and shot. There are also restrictions with chocking and steel although I presume you're probably already familiar with those. Quote Link to post

They use to be available to reloader from suppliers. 1 Quote Link to post

It makes you wonder how long the cartridges can be kept and still retain the integrity to protect your barrel? Those wads turned to mosh in a few hours. Good point that the next test should be give them a light spray of water and leave them for a day, then open them up and see what they look like inside 1 Quote Link to post
