casts_by_fly Posted October 30, 2009 Report Share Posted October 30, 2009 Bit high. I just paid £42 for for 250 Hull special pigeon, 32g 6's, plastic. I thought that was a little high but didn't mind. 'Game' cartridges were £50-60 per 250 for the most part. Thanks Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I buy pigeon carts I will only buy proper cartridges "proper pigeon" £160 (last time I got some off george the maker) a thou 5.5s and the best cart I have ever used when I use these I honestly feel that I wont miss ( do though) KW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tazkb Posted October 30, 2009 Report Share Posted October 30, 2009 best thing is lads to ring around, try bond and bywater at preston, they usually have a good selection in at a reasonable price McAvoys are normaly a bit cheaper than bamfords in my experiance but are usually limited to Eley mainly. I sometimes get cartridges from the shooting shack in Bolton but they have very limited supplies, although they do some times have odd size loads which I like, such as last time i popped in they had some "pigeon supreme" 34g No5's which are a cracking cartridge if not cheap. It's allways best to buy by the thousend so a couple of you club together and buy a thousend then split them and yo can save a good few bob doing it like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
