groach1234 Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 Was out today and talking to someone about me not being a fan of the cartridges i am using (rio something) but that they work in my gun as i have had trouble with some other brands misfiring and its only waiting until the end of the season so i can send the gun off to be fixed. So anyway he told me to try his cartridges so he gave me a box and they were gamebore pure gold paper and they are with out a shadow of a doubt the best cartridges i have tried to date including Eley Gand prix and VIP these Rios i have some RCs, OK game, lyalvale special game, hull high pheasant and imperial game. The have no recoil and are a pleasure to shoot. I have looked into buying some and they are not cheap but seem worth it and i think i may pic some up for when i am out next week as paper cartridges just feel that bit more special. Has anyone else tried them and what did they think? George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sprinter Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 (edited) I'd be interested in opinions on these too. I'm using Eley Impax papers at the moment and was thinking of trying some pure gold paper next year (assuming they are 65mm cased).

I got some impax today as tried two shops and neither had the gamebore in in 28g 6's only 32g 5's a bit much for my gun haha well let you know how they compare.

Floating Chamber Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 (edited) Biodegradeble shells back after 45 years! Wow! Memories. Actually, paper shells never 'died' out, they became very expensive as cheap plastic Reifenhauser extruded tubes took over. Warning! Keep them dry!
