We are sure that all shooters are keen to help the environment. CCC knows that our sport needs to be as environmentally responsible as possible. We believe that it is important to explore new ideas and commit to new innovative products. Demand for these new products have significantly increased.
Taylor'd Shot Taylor'd Shot is a patented process whereby ordinary lead is processed to absorb an organic silicon which makes it inert on land and in water. It gets rid of many of the pollutive disadvantages of lead. This is not an alternative to Bismuth or Tungsten but will help the shooting industry clean up its act. Photodegradable Wads Photodegradable wads look like plastic wads but they are not. Photodegradable wads are made of a vegetable die and the self destruction process begins when the wad is exposed to the atmospheric agents and especially to the light. After approx 8-10 months the wad starts to crack and then turn into a powder after about 2 years of exposure. CCC are now loading all of their high velocity XL cartridges with photodegradable wads. We are able to substitute most plastic wads with photodegradable wads at a small premium. Fibre Wads The popularity of fibre wads is growing year on year and we see no sign or reason why this will change. CCC load their flagship cartridge - the Monarch - with fibre wads as well as their best selling Classics in 12, 16 and 20 bore. Fibre wads biodegrade in a matter of weeks. Paper Cases As a result of popular demand, CCC launched a paper case version of their Monarch cartridge in 2002. This remains available as does paper case versions of our Classic cartridge in 28 and 30 gram loads with a variety of shot sizes. Paper cases degrade extremely quickly and also smell lovely when fired!
