nicknicknick Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 Hi, guys. Hope you have all had a good Christmas. Just moved back to Suffolk and was trying to find cheap hull or express cartridges. stocking up for the pigeons ! Wanted to ask you guys before I go to the wrong place. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markbrowning Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 Sorry to hijack the thread. I live in Berkshire but am often back in Ipswich, Suffolk to visit family. I do occasionally shoot here too. So instead of bring cartridges back to shoot with.... Where is a cheap place near Ipswich to pick up cartridges. Preferably at the 1000 rate. I'm luckily enough for my RFD back at home to supply at 1000 rate. If they don't I will just continue to bring them back with me on occasion. Cheers, Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nicknicknick Posted December 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 Hi vampire, cheers for that. I can tell much from Google about this place. Do u know if they do an online cartridge price list ? I could not see one. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicknicknick Posted December 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2013 I have been googling and found Simpson, Stuart's clay traps, Clarke's and thetford . Anyone know which you have found better for cartridges. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alanl50 Posted December 30, 2013 Report Share Posted December 30, 2013 Essex shooting supplies cheapest if your coming past Colchester I buy nearly all my ammo there Stuart clays never has anything, Clarkes of Walsham are pretty keen on prices, Truelock and Harris not too bad and Richardson's in Halesworth does some deals sometimes but I always end up at Essex Shooting supplies last price check I bought 1000 Gamebore clear pigeon £208.00 new style not old stock and there rifle ammunition not bad prices.

Shotgun1985 Posted December 30, 2013 Report Share Posted December 30, 2013 I've just moved up here. Found Clarkes to be quite good. Went shooting a Barrow Heath the other day and spoke to Phil Moss. He gave me a card for a shop called forelock and Load in Barrow and said they were pretty keen on price. Best I've found. £169.40 for french (chasse) pigeon!

Gunnerbob Posted December 30, 2013 Report Share Posted December 30, 2013 I use Clarkes, good service, good price.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicknicknick Posted December 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2013 Thanks for the post, I have not been to work wise before. Sounds a bit random for cartridges, I shall check it out. Thanks shotgun just had a look at forelock and load and very good on price. Clark's is good but it's about 45 mins from mine. Field shooter again Essex is a bit far but I have been a few times and always been good on service and plenty of stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
