Hi Poor Shot, took the pin out and found in perfect condition and no crud. so must be the cartridges.

😂😂

They also had that distinctive smell. Jeyes fluid etc

I seem to recall General Marshall calling for the same, I think he was quoted as saying “we have knocked the Pooh out of the Germans now let’s continue and do the same to the Russians” I am sure it was called the Marshall Plan?

I would have to disagree Vince, the yanks have been more of a threat to world peace over the years than Russia. My grandad told me back in the 70s that the yanks were war mongers, it’s all down to how much money can be made from Arms.

I totally agree Gordon R

What threats have there been towards NATO members since 1949. Genuine question as I am very keen on history.

This was the NATO bit I was referring to, obviously not full members, but Zelensky has mentioned this on two occasions for it to fall on deaf ears. . In 1997, NATO and Ukraine agreed to a “distinctive partnership” and established the NATO-Ukraine Council.

Thanks Poor Shot, I shall strip it this week and have a look.

I thought that there was an obligation from America and Britain to protect the Ukrainians if they gave up the nuclear arsenal that they had inherited from the fall of the communists. I doubt Russia would have invaded if the Ukraine had still possessed all those missiles, third largest arsenal in the world at the time. Doesn't that prove nato is not worth a carrot.

That would work Welsh1

Interesting that Poor Shot, my duds at the weekend were bottom barrel in a Prosport. Shot thousands of FBlues and not had a problem with bottom barrel or any cartridge to be honest.

I used the same cartridges this weekend and had 2 duds in just 100 cartridges, it’s only 2 out of 100 but surely that percentage is considered high? My apologies, it wasn’t 2 in 100 it was 2 in 25, I only took 1 box the rest were super gems which I had no trouble with.

😂😂 Well spotted
