Gents, I have found a supplier local to me who stocks both. I'm looking for 2.3/3mm pellets, mainly for method/ banjo feeder fishing.
Any reason to pick one brand over the other?

I've only ever used skrettings so I couldn't say, but I've never had reason to look for an alternative.

Blessed are the cracked:

You could always go "halfs" with a mate, when you decide.

I'd go halves with you, but we'd probably blow any savings on diesel to meet up somewhere In between!

Just got some of both types and found that coppens only need to be wetted slightly or will turn to mush have to be very careful preparing these
sketting wet as normal (a minute a millimetre) and they keep colour and bind together well just as known brands i know which i prefer and thats skettings
