I've just convinced the good people at my local constabulary to permit me to use slug.
Firstly, what choke should I be using and secondly, what do people think are the best from a value vs. quality perspective |

Geco appears to be the most accurate, in the widest variety of guns. My saiga shoots it just the same through true cylinder, half, or full choke. It seems to work best in benellis throuigh improved cylinder.
Tried the new coated competition slug, side by side with the old stuff Daddy...it shoots to the same point of aim, and just as tight, but it doesn,t cut as clean a hole for some reason. |

you need to sign up to view the forum - but no competition licence required 
a few of us are reloading with all new components : Fiocchi hulls/primers - vp05 wads- lee 10z slugs & 18.5 red dot powder. works very well in all semi's & pumps, no special reloading tools apart from a roll crimp ( fits in hand drill ) & a good set of powder scales. pm me for more info

Quoted: Lots of complaints this weekend about the new stuff. I hadn,t noticed, and should have, that its a 26 gramme load, not 28 like the old one. It doesn,t work in benelli,s.  However, that doesn,t mean to a thing to me....i,ve got a saiga......  ...and you know how to use it, so I've heard. Well done...  |

Better grouping than the previous incarnation but still not a patch on the original Geco slug....

Leaves very ragged holes???? Previous version of Geco slug....
