    You can get biodegradable clays, but from what I remember they are a bit pricey.

    Why ? why must it cost more if its less harm full - just seems its always the case, and there should be no real reason once its standard practice.

    Yeah we shot Bio clays in Italy last month, they're harder than normal clays as well by the feel of them.

    I heard some clay pigeon shooters complain that these are very difficult to break in flight. It might have been a hardegat batch I don't know.

    Biodegradable clays will only be part of the effort. Those wads are a curse too.
    live out your imagination , not your history.

    They are a bit more expensive yes. They are alot lighter too and they have a soapy feel to them. I've had problems with them in my 2 automated traps. They don't fall the same way from the carousel as your standard clay target and they either break when you release or they take a different flight path every time. I have found them very inconsistent. Great idea but I think the developers need to go back to the drawing board.
