Old gold!!!! If these were 16's, I would be all over these 🤣

I recognise this photo mate 🤣 I made contact with RUAG a while ago to see about getting hold of some more Special 16's and it was a no go at that point, the only 16's they could get hold of were Nobel Sport. Last few Special 16's I bought were from Lovell's in Witney a couple of years ago, but 7's and they only had a few boxes. Probably got half a slab left. They did randomly have some VIP 25 gram 8's in 16g though! If it is oddball and 16g, chances are I have some 😉 RC 16's are just as good to be fair and a damn site easier to get hold of round my way in Essex.

Cheers Andy, by modern I meant 1980's onwards but the cases look older if that makes sense

Modern head and stamp on those 2 inch but an old looking paper case.... unusual! Is there a packing code inside the box? I suspect not going by the headstamp. They remind me of the commemorative grand prix paper case that Eley bought out a few year back!

I could have collected last night as stopped in at Bury St Edmunds for fuel! Definitely of interest still but might be a few weeks before I am back up that way....

Some cracking old school carp gear there. Basically my set up from the mid 90's! Still got a couple of ST's in the garage although doubt they have been turned on for 15 years. And as for the baitrunners, they don't make them like that anymore! Good luck with the sale, I would snap that up in a heart beat for old times sake if I didn't have a garage full already 🤣

In normal circumstances, I would be all over this, but having 2 16's that have probably been out of my cabinet 5 times in the last year and a shed full of cartridges (last batch courtesy of none other than @Little Chopper I am going to say 'I am out' 🤣 A great deal for sure and great guy to deal with! For reference, those yellow 16 Grand Prix's are rare as rocking horse and before anyone asks, they are definitely 16's and not 20's!!

Ernest Doe are still a big New Holland and Case dealer in the South East. Are the Eley Kynoch paper or plastic?

Rare as unfortunately! Got a few hundred Rottweil Club 32 bangers down here in Essex

Here here! Just recently bought some rare 16 bore cartridges from @Little Chopper and he is an absolute diamond to deal with. More often than not, lots in the auctions are very mixed lots and too Robin's point, you have to pick out what you want from each lot and decide what to do with the rest. Not about making profit as most of what I have sold I have broken even on at best. Glad you got these sold mate and thanks for the yellow 16 bore Grand Prix/Hymax.

Black or orange cartridges? Green or black box? Might seem like pedantic questions but will give away if these are 90's or 2000's 😉
