Shooting How often does this happen ?

Shot a few slugs today and a wad ended up lodging itself into the target. I hadn’t seen anything like it before so I was thought it was pretty cool haha. I was wondering if it’s a common occurrence at shorter ranges ?

I really wish fibre wad ammunition was the common choice. I hate that with every trigger pull we´re throwing a big chunk of plastic into the nature that we love

I tried biodegradable shells and they suck unfortunately. Every shell was swelled up and the hulls would split

there´s a big difference between hulls and wads though. In Europe fibre wad is everywhere, you can´t compete in many competitions using plastic wad.
