Any 28 bore aficionados out there ?
I shot one extensively a few years ago and have just rekindled my interest.
i have some new barrels that are very heavily choked and need to be opened out somewhat. Any body got any constructive suggestions on choke (ideally in actual measurements as in 10 thou for example) firstly for sporting and secondly for sensible game shooting. My original gun was a multi-choked Guerini so I simply shot the 1/4, 1/2 or 3/4 tubes and got on with it. This time I’m starting with a ‘clean slate’ so want to get it as right as possible and try and understand what is going on.....
Second question; does anybody know of a source for 16-18 gram cartridges with either 8 or 9 shot ? Just Cartridges don’t appear to stock anything to that spec. I’m not aware of any other retailers/grounds with a decent and/or unusual selection of 28 bore cartridges.
Any thoughts gratefully received.
