    Hi lads Im looking for opinions on this stuff. Ive tried all the common stuff like Rc, Eley , FOB etc but Im thinking of trying these B&P cartridges and also maybe some of the Bornaghi or NSI. Anyone used them and what are the opinions?

    B&P are excellent cartridges. The are highly regarded by International completive shooters.

    Baschieri & Pellagri (B&P) invented and manufacture their own powders, they make their own hulls and they make their own wads all in-house. It is this unique combination of wad, hull and propellant that sets B&P apart. It is known as quality control.

    If your on the bird you'l do damage? "FACT"

    Must common mistake, people stop swinging the gun, and fire behind target!!!

    I have drop'd pigeons and crows at 80+ yards with 7.5 28g trap ammo!! Olimpics @ that!, Rc sipe are savage and Eley pigeon and wicked bit dearer but you get what you pay for in this world!!!,

    Bad, work man blames tools! ,,,,Any 12g ammo is good now a days, not like 25 years ago when,Eley for game and Winchester Silver for clays was about the best....

    thats for sure ive also tryed most shells around and it was the biggest mistake if you ask me. took me a while to get back used to the one make shell i was useing from the start. now i just stick to floochie for pheasant and remigton for duck and the odd eley 7.5 and they work perfect for me so i dont bother with anything eles any more .stick to what works for sure.

    B&P are brilliant shells, very hard hitting,the steel shot is very good being in the north we have to use steel over water/wetlands i wouldnt use anything else, lots of lads round me use them and have to travel 20mile to get them due to know 1 stocking them locally,
