Does anyone on here use black powder cartridges in their older shotguns ? Some of the uk makers still do small batches for people with elderly guns, that want to take them out from time to time. Lyalvale and eley were doing them, along with some italian brands , just wondered if there is a stockist in Ireland

Don't know about actual black powder but there's stuff out there with modern propellants that generate comparable low pressure. The English brands would be prominent among them alright.
