super sharp shooter Posted August 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Thanks for the heads up on that. I went there this morning expecting to by some A1 powder and left with none due to the price of it. The guy wanted £40 per tub which is more than twice the price. So I left the shop with nothing. Rip of Britain !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wigeon jim Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 I use Tecna-n in a 28 gram steel load with good results, George is your man for powders, you won't beat his prices, was shooting pigeons with George on Sunday and he was showing me what his fast cartridges can do, seen some of the highest pigeons I have seen shot with his 32 gram loads, good to meet him and spent some time shooting with him, Jim.

super sharp shooter Posted August 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 Defiantly 1/2 kg tubs. I asked why they were double the price and the guy said you don't have to pay postage and he has to pay postage to get them delivered to the shop ??

I asked why they were double the price and the guy said you don't have to pay postage and he has to pay postage to get them delivered to the shop ?? The price is so dear because they use the official Vectan 1/2kg containers rather than decanting it from a 20kg drum into smaller containers. Apparently that's the only way Lyalvale intend to supply dealers as of next year, making reloading unviable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
