cumbrian shooter Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 (edited) Hi guys 12bore rottweil 36g special #6 (english 5.5) got some of these and was shocked at how hard they hit crows on the decoys even at 40 yds stone dead and looking like a freight train hit it!! just wondering if anyone else has used them and what they think! Tried to research them at raug ammo tech But not much info just marketing description! Im wanting a bit of info on there muzzle energy and speed! Just somthing iv been wanting to find out! There bloody expensive at 70 a slab for the economy range, and up to x amount for there top range cartridge! They seem very popular in europe but not as heard of in england! The guy in the shop told me there as good as any and hit hard at range also! So guys im keen to hear your experiences with this cartridge! regards c.s Edited December 21, 2012 by cumbrian shooter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bruno22rf Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Not expensive if they bring home the bacon-if you need twice as many cheaper shells to kill as many crows then they be a bargain-Rottweil have always made good quality shells-well worth the extra in my opinion.
