Depends on your venue and your experience. Big bore is fkn hard work but beginners can get the whole worm out easier without smashing it up? As you gain experience you can use a smaller bore better and it is easier to work. Alvey is a good make.

Whats the sand like? if it's soft and easy going, go for the large bore if you've not done it before and young and fit? Get white silicon washers off ebay and take a fairy liquid bottle with you to lubricate your pump, check out YouTube for technique.

I have the Alvey wide bore and find it very good, i have used it for both black and blow lug, if when your using it for blow lug and you keep coming up with half worms its usually because your pushing the pump in to deep and chopping the worm in half so try shallower, you dont seem to have the same problem with black as they sit more vertical in the hole where blow sit in a u shaped burrow

Upgraded from my 30mm alvey recently and won’t be looking back. Cracking pumps. And forget the thin bore/fat bore spiel: if you learn with the 22mm you aint gonna lose anything. Might be harder if you learn on a 50mm where accuracy is irrelevant then try changing over.
