norfolk dumpling Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 Saw these in a gun shop recently - £38 per slab. Anyone used these? Gunshop owner says worked well on clays and one (very old!) pal says good for rabbits. Might buy one each for 12 and 20g and try them. Is this a marketing ploy to get shells known and then up prices?

Catamong Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 I was given a few boxes to try by a local Gun Dealer, he now uses them for clays, having previously used Hull Sovereigns. I couldn't fault them, they were an excellent clay load, but not exceptional enough for me to switch away from my usual brand. They are made in Spain, http://www.trust-eibarres.com/ The pricing is very attractive, but I don't see any hidden agenda there, the likes of Eley and Gamebore will not be losing any sleep over this "new kid on the block".

fenboy Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 I have used both the 28 gram 7.5 and 32 gram 6 Excellent cartridges for the price , they have been available for at least a couple of years now so I cannot see the price being a marketing ploy.

Guest cookoff013 Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 i bought them because they were cheap. looks like they use neodisc, helarco wads. i`m not keen on the helarco wads,,,, but good enough to bang off at flying saucers.

Ttfjlc Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 Their 28g 6s brought down a few pheasants and their 28g 7.5s did a good job on the clays when I did my bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackstar Ninja Posted July 27, 2014 Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 24g 9s on OSK and 28g 7s and 8s on sporting continental sizes, good shell IMHO, good price! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlaserF3 Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 I've shot a few thousand Trust 24 gram, excellent value for money but I'm not saying how much I'm paying for them though I only started shooting them when my supplier ran out of RC 2's, they have just a little bit more recoil than the RC's but they do break clays well.
