i hear plated bismuth is the go now
as it overcomes bismuths tendency to fragment

It would be nice to get some of the Boss Shotshells that are available in the states.

hallelujah your preaching to the already converted if thier loads are half as good as stated bring them on
if they,d been available id a kept my 20 gauge.
bye the bye i patterned gamebores 12 gauge 30 gram steel 2.s at about 30 feet on the f&g mallard drake target.
oops
the wad went thru the middle and the steel 2.s tore holes everywhere else lol looked like a buckshot strike.
hope falcon has the sence to go for the new plated bismuth for thier loads and not repeat the mistakes others have found with it.
im usein12 bore eley vip 3.s on parries and am so far not impressed out of twin imp/cyl chokes patterns great kills not so.

I received my bismuth from Gunworks the other day which from what I can tell is the stuff from Falcon. It’s not a copper colour or anything but may be tin or a zink type plating I’m not sure. I’ll post a picture when I get home.
