    Wanted Mk38 grade 5 adjustable comb

    The gun I have has had the comb cut away and leather and foam added by a trap shooter. If I can find an MK38 Grade 5 comb, off another gun, I can fit it and get Tim Greenwood to blend the grain in.

    Spreader Shell

    I have an Mk38 trap which measure 0.032"  So a tight 3/4.  I use the gun for game so want to keep the chokes the same.  Otherwise, I'd have 2 x 3/8th in there.   I used to have Multichoke guns, but as an Engineer...... found myself analysing each stand and putting in the appropriate choke for...

    Spreader Shell

    My findings on Fibres and BIORS are covered in another post.  Against a 9" Plaswad pattern at 20yds, they give 18" to 20" in diameter.   Its important to me as I shoot a fixed choke gun.  As I seen this video, I though that a cartridge with that wad in would be a good shell for me.  I am off...

    Spreader Shell

    The missus tells me that when I am 'mucking about' my full choke blows the pattern and I have to clean the bowl!!!!!!

    Spreader Shell

    Hi All I watched this video last night.  It seems that Fiocchi in the US do a ‘Spreader’ shell.  The guys show them difference between choke and the spreader shell. Quite interesting this is! The Science of Shotgun Shells (ft. Fiocchi) - YouTube So where do we buy shells with this WAd in them?

    BIOR or Fibre?

    So I found an old box of Fiocchi 28grm TT Ones 7.5's. I patterned it at 20yds and it gave me a 15" diameter pattern  which is bigger than my 9" Superb pattern at the same range. Certainly at £70/1000 cheaper than Hull Pro Puston that's enough of a shell for me to shoot out to 30yds comfortably.

    24gram shells

    Morning all, What's people's opinions on 24gram shells, and are there any recommendations on them? I shot a budget shells the other week and not only was it smoother, but it powdered the sporting targets I pointed it at!

    BIOR or Fibre?

    If your gun shoots tight patterns with your usual shells, I'd say that a cheap fibre with low antimony would definitely be the shell.

    The first pattern us the superb plaswad 7.5 . Just left of centre. 2nd the F3 BIOR 3rd the Hull Pro Piston 9 4th the Superb Fibre 8's Sorry, but you'll have to zoom in. My black marker had dried up!

    BIOR or Fibre?

    I'll colour them up and take pictures in the light. 9's are teeny weeny and hard to see 🤣 Just so you know, the Superb 8's measure a pretty consistent 8.75......

    BIOR or Fibre?

    I went in to the shop to get those very shells.... However, they had no stock.  All of the shell suppliers are way behind and the gunshops are just taking stock of what they can get. I will pattern that shell when I can get my hands on them and report it here

    BIOR or Fibre?

    🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I've been A Class for so bloody long now I highly doubt that's going to happen!!!! I know what works in my gun and what performs less than expected. So if Gamebore came along I'd have to decline 😉

    BIOR or Fibre?

    A particular high end brand name, flagship cartridge in 3 of my guns performed very badly. Typically, as a rule of thumb, high Antimony shot gives good patterns.... I have found that out. Tempered and Diamond shot lead sounds good....... But it's soft. I had 1 manufacturer, tell me that soft...
