Like it or not, shotgun shooters in Britain have until the 1st of April 2029 to switch to non-lead shot – and that applies to clays as well as game. This summer Eley teamed up with the CPSA to give clayshooters the chance to try the latest steel loads on clay targets. We talk to shooters who tried steel at the 2026 British Open Sporting to see what they thought.

For more on the CPSA timeline for the switch see CPSA.co.uk/shotchange
