My favorite quail gun is a 28 ga double with 30" barrels choked .002 and .005.It was OK until I tried a double load of Polywads. I used the Polywad Spreadr with 8 shot for the covie rise, and the Polywad Gram Crackr with 6 shot for the going away birds at a distance. The Gram Crackr is a 5/8 oz load of nickle plated shot in a shot cup with a powdered buffer material. It seems to kill at 25 yards and 45 yards. Choke seems to make little difference. They shoot tight at almost any distance.
I'm not sure if Polywad is still in business. No web activity, no listed inventory and can't get through on the phone. They would be a real loss. Without Polywad and RST, it will be tough with 100 year old shotguns.
