Anyone else shooting 28ga ?
Was out for pheasants yesterday and decided to take my Cooey 840 in 28ga for a change of pace. Shooting over a pair of wire haired pointing griffons .I hand loaded Cheddite hulls with 30gr of H110.....7/8oz lead #5....and BPI's HV28 wad for 1320fps or so the book says. Shot two roosters. Didn't seem to be any difference in killing power than with my usual 20ga.The more I use the 28ga the more I like it. The above load is safe in my gun but may not be in your's although it is straight out of the BPI book.
