Big Bit Needed!!

[Loubiepoo]

Hi,

Can anyone help me I'm trying to find a 6 1/4 snaffle for my big mouthed boy! (would prefer loose ring, but know that I'm limited in my choice).

Has anyone bought one and if so where from, or has anyone got one that they would like to sell?

Thanks.

Thanks Henmeister, don't quite need a 6 1/2 just a 6 1/4 so if you could let me know where you got yours from.

I have heard that NS bits are smaller in size anyway though so a 6" NS is more like a 5 1/2 in a normal bit, is that true?

Hi i have a mare with a big gob!! ive had two 6 1/4" bits off ebay search on ebay there is a company that specialise in larger bits, my dentist told me if i cannot get a 6 1/4 then use a 6 1/2 with bit rubbers on it, not ideal i know but my mare goes extremely well in a 6 1/2" three ring with bit rubbers, ive got a couple 6 1/2 NS bits and would say they are more like a 6 1/4 in fit.

Ring Risley Saddlery at Risley Nottingham I'm not sure how far you want to travel its down the M1 from Doncaster junction 25. I've always found them to have a good selection and if they haven't got it in they can normally get it quite quickly. Look up Risley Saddlery on the internet their bits go from 3 1/2 to 7".
