Greenhunter Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 My club has them in and most members shoot them at some time. Have never heard any complaints and I don't have any either. GH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apache Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 They perform ok but with a fibre wad leave a nasty smear of lead in the barrels that takes 3 times as long to clean as other shells. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fat_jay Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 I'm with Apache, fiber leaded the barrels up terribly, now using Kent velocities, much cleaner although a little punchy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acid House Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 I'm with Apache, fiber leaded the barrels up terribly, now using Kent velocities, much cleaner although a little punchy I'm having issues with the latest blue velocities not ejecting but find them ok.

scuta Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 Cracking little shell for the money - kills everything if you put the lead in the right place! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B25Modelman Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 (edited) Even at £150 per 1000 that is still a good price. Which are they fibre or plastic and 24g or 28g Online fibres 24g are £172 + £15 delivery. 28g are £184 + £15 delivery.

NickP Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 Yep, swillington shooting supplies have them as there branded carts, little bit more recoil than compX but swillington is so much closer than the dealer that sells the compX near me, so there my preferred cart £144 per 1000 plastic iirc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSPUK Posted July 19, 2011 Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 Had a few low primers lately but not really a problem - these are 28g- 7.5's - I did a 120 birder the other sunday - used Victory Challengers - Eley Superb and Firsts - couldn't really tell difference except in price - Challengers and Superbs were only £120 a thousand -- that was a few years ago mind.
