Acid House Posted July 12, 2011 Report Share Posted July 12, 2011 Took a couple of boxes home for clay bashing and although I have used them several times in the past with no issues the most recent ones are not ejecting fully. The first ones I used had clear plastic and then the second lot had a pink cast. These ones have a blue cast in the plastic. Its not all of them, just the odd one that pops out of the barrel when breaking but stops about half way out. They are also not clearing the barrel in my semi so result in the occasional jam. Anyone else having any issues????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver pigeon 3 Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 just bought 2000 and they are pink, seem fine in the o/u and semi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acid House Posted July 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 (edited) I went through a thousand pink ones without a hitch. It's just these new blue ones that are causing the problem. In fact on Sunday I still had a box of the pinks and they shot with no probs but on returning to the blue the issues started again.

Acid House Posted July 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2011 Must be me then................ I gave the guns a damed good clean after the session but wont be able to shoot again until next weekend so ill try again. It was just the fact that the pinks eject ok and the blue ones were not clearing the gun and all on the same day......... :unsure: Cheers guys for the replies Oh and as for the price............ I never ask. I just ask for 500 or a thou and hand over the card. It scares me if I know........... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
super sharp shooter Posted July 17, 2011 Report Share Posted July 17, 2011 I'm using the blue ones and found they eject ok they seem to be dirtier than the pink and clear ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
washerboy Posted February 23, 2013 Report Share Posted February 23, 2013 bought 250 of the red /pink ones, tried them for the first time on clays yesterday. After using Rio 21g i expected massive recoil issue but was surpriced, i couldnt tell a massive difference and i hit a few more clays. So if my local shop stocks them regular then i will continue to use them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figgy Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 Might be down to the makes of gun you are using some have tight chambers, making them more prone to this my beretta sometimes hangs onto the odd cart case. Figgy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12boreblue Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 Clay shooting on Sunday using Kent velocity, second batch of a 1000, first batch no problem, noticed a couple of issues with this batch, it was a cold day, on 4 traps I missed clays because of a slight delay from pulling the trigger and the cartridge firing, only a split second but caused me to drop five targets!!! Also noticed a few not ejecting clean, had to pull them out by hand. Really annoyed about the delayed ones though, I finished third with 81 and might have won with 86!!!

Not doubting your experience but if that really happened it must be reported to the manufacturer as it is positively dangerous and a potential disaster waiting to happen.

TIGHTCHOKE Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 Good advice Hampster! If they really are "HANGFIRING" then they should be back with the manufacturer for investigation! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cookoff013 Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 buy different cartridges,. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlistairB Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 Had the occasional one not eject of the blue and pink ones, but never had hangfires. The current load i've got are white and had no issues with them, maybe that'll make a difference :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CZ550Kevlar Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 I got some on Sunday, previous ones were clear plastic, these were pink and clear. After a few clays I noticed I was covered in little yellow bits then a bit later my semi auto stopped working and got a couple of cases that didn't eject properly.

I advised the seller of the issue, and it is now up to them to do something about it. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought it might be a good idea to also inform Gamebore and back up the supplier, I guess they do not want a recall on a load of shells do they, so covered my you know what.
