billytheghillie Posted June 26, 2010 Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 has anyone tried these yet? i know the guy is from the north east, but cannot find anyone selling them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beretta Posted June 26, 2010 Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 shot a lot of the clay range and they are a great cart. low recoil, very low recoil but great pattern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whiskymac Posted June 26, 2010 Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 I shoot the Little Devils from proper cartridges and think they are brill. I don't have much experience with many different carts to be fair but they break clays every bit as well as the Eley Superbs I used before them. They are a decent price, low recoil and seem pretty clean through my barrels. Nicky T has shot a lot more of them than me and also loves them and Beretta has more experience than most and also rates them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicky T Posted June 26, 2010 Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 I'm a fan of Proper Cartridges and am shooting their Little Devils in 7.5 28g at the moment. Very low recoil as both Beretta and Whiskymac state, but they can certainly handle business when it comes to breaking clays Give them a go and see what you think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billytheghillie Posted June 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 i was thinking of using them for the pigeons. i got a box from weldon gunroom when i bought my escort, but my mate nicked them (some mate) do you boys think they will be any good for the pigeons? do you know the price of them? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anser2 Posted June 26, 2010 Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 (edited) I have used them on pigeons and they are ok, nothing special but they do the job like 99% of shotgun shells on the market. They are fairly cheap though. Edited June 26, 2010 by anser2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

micky1987 Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 i use proper pigeon and think they are a cracking cartridge. they are 30 gram 6's or you can get 5.5's. bywell and weldon both sell them at £180 a thousand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicky T Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 I believe that Kdubya on here uses the Proper Pigeon carts too so is probably the best person to get an opinion from Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tikka tom Posted June 28, 2010 Report Share Posted June 28, 2010 has anyone tried these yet? i know the guy is from the north east, but cannot find anyone selling them. iv used some a lad gave me they wernt the best cartriges iv used i like my victory better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdubya Posted June 28, 2010 Report Share Posted June 28, 2010 only a few dealers stock them namely richardsons garden center just off the A19 at seaham turnoff and you can get them at bywell, otherwise its direct from george, both the little devils (clays) and proper pigeon are as good as you can get ( I make my own pigeon carts now or I would still use them ) KW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatingisbest Posted June 29, 2010 Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 A friend of mine used to use them but one of them didnt have any powder in the cartridge when he fired it, saw the shot fall out the barrel and had a wad stuck in the barrel, he was using a benelli and luckily it didnt cycle another cartridge.... if it had done and he'd pulled the trigger.... well its scary to think of what could have happened! He doesnt use them anymore believe it or not! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steyr 6.5 Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 I shoot the proper Pigeon carts and have been for 12 months, they are excellent. I have 250 left due to a couple of great days on Pidos and crows. Prob is my dealer aint selling them now (probabaly gone up in price). Anyone know of a dealer in Wrexham/Chester area?
