Thunderbird Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 I'm looking to buy in semi-bulk (1000 or maybe 2000) cartridges as follows: Size 7.5, 28g, fibre wad - for sporting clays Looking for something the best value possible BUT at a speed that should cycle well in a Remmy 1100. Opinions welcome. In case someone wants to recommend a shop I'm based in Bristol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floating Chamber Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 There's 'bulk' and 'bulk'. To me bulk is around 20 000 to get just a little discount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderbird Posted January 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 That's why I deliberately said semi-bulk. I'm not necessarily asking about discounts, I'm asking about value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
utectok Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 Not gonna get any discount on those numbers most of the guys on here buy 1-3k at a time I think apparantly 10k will give u some discount. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlaserF3 Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 (edited) I think that you will find that you will need to buy a minimum of 5000 to get a discount of about £3 per thousand compared to buying 1000. Honestly your semi bulk order is quite small to what some shooters buy. Hull CompX in 28gm should work OK but early Remington's were designed for 32gm.

Tiff-TRG Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 Mine used to work well with Claybuster 70mm 28g or Viri Vipers 70mm RIO Target Load 7.5's 70mm fibre cart's at £133 per 1,000 :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderbird Posted January 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Thanks to the people who have recommended cartridges. I don't think I made myself entirely clear in my original post. What I was asking was; what is the best value [above spec, non-Gucci etc] cartridge [in people's opinion] that will cycle in a 1100? When I mentioned semi-bulk I was really talking more about committing to that rather than buying them piecemeal at 50 or 100 a go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George1990 Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Lyevale English Sporter in fibre pack a punch for a 28g 7 1/2 cartridge. Haven't got a semi but there was noticably more whack. More so than the 32g 6's i'm using. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COACH Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Yes, the Express English Sporter is cheap and will recycle in the Remi but thats because they kick like a mule. Give a couple of boxes a try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
