wildfowler.250 Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 What are they above cartridges like? I need recommendations for ducks and geese on the shore? I was thinking of 1's and 3's. Also, what sort of price should I be looking to pay? My local says £11 a box but my other shop is buying some in and I'm hoping their prices are more reasonable. I Was hoping for gamebore mammoths but they seem to be like hens teeth in scotland Any advice would be greatly appreciated as they season isn't very far away! Cheers!

harrycatcat1 Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 Is this any help? http://forums.pigeonwatch.co.uk/forums/topic/253354-eley-withdrawing-lightning-shells/ Regards Hcc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motty Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 I have yet to field test my Lightnings. The patterns were ok (haven't tried them through my Terror yet) and i'm sure they will do the job. £11 for a box of 25 seems reasonable enough, although i paid nearer £9 for mine.

Terry P Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 You don't seem to having much luck getting shells pal, can you get or have you tried Hull Solway, I used them one season and they did the job just fine. I used 1's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barrold Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 Thought they recalled a load of these? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildfowler.250 Posted August 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 Think they were fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayano3 Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 They did recall them due to pressures but the tests proved inconclusive...which of course they would do ! This info come from a cartridge supplier and not necessarily a good source of information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
