WinchesterDave Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 (edited) Went to my local shop today to buy some cartridges for my first pheasant shoot on Wednesday, with the intention of getting eley vip or gamebore black gold; none of which they had. I asked for a few boxes of 5s and a few boxes of 6s and this is what they had.. Victory Europa 32g of said shot. Sizes. Has anyone tried these are they good? Apparently they are a "popular choice".

dodeer Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 All Victory are a good cartridge. I use a fair few of the 29gr Rockets and find them very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattSoanes Posted December 1, 2013 Report Share Posted December 1, 2013 Been using the victory rocket for the last 12 years or so, if the Europa are anything like them you won't be disappointed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aister Posted December 1, 2013 Report Share Posted December 1, 2013 I remember using them in 32gr no6 before the lead ban came in. Used them on everything from mallard on down to snipe and thought they were good, thumbs up from me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
