Dirty Barrels

Highland Deephaven shoot out onto the Cromarty.

Just for interest, do you know what cartridges/choke they are using?

28g max and steel only. Club sells Hull or bring your own. Everyone has different views on choke!

I have seen a guy shooting steel gamebore black gold 28 grams. They would dirty his barrels so much that he had a hard time getting the empty hulls out after a couple of hundred shells. This was in a browning BTW.

I’m shooting Express precision steel 28g 7.5 and find they dirty the barrels to a similar affect as standard cartridges.

I have always found gamebore to be a dirty cartridge.they seem to have more recoil too-to me at least.

I’ll second that. I’ve tried gamebore carts but they are heavy on recoil and mucky too. There’s lots of hype but not a lot of quality.

Am I the only one who expects dirty barrels when I shoot my gun? I just go by results

I don’t care either. But empty cartridges stuck in the chambers would annoy me as well.

true, that IS annoying, I have been getting stuck empties from a recent batch of Lyalvale English Sporters although I have used thousands of these in the past and am not sure that the problem is caused by dirty barrels
