Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - Clay targets
Posted: 8/13/2007 4:08:07 PM EDT
Seems no one shoots clays in the GD so I'll try here.

Remington  clays , how long do they take to degraded. I would like to shoot up against the side of a huge hill I have and they will break apart on the hillside. Do they degrade ? How long does it take for them to return to the earth ?

Thanks

They are made from pitch, so I don't think they ever really "dissolve." I think they just break up into smaller and smaller pieces and don't have very much of an envirionmental effect. How fast they break up likely depends on the weather where you are.

I think Champion makes some that are supposed to be biodegradable, but I've heard they are more difficult to break and expensive.
