oozelumbird Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 There ok, not to punchy. A good alround cartridge. I shoot about 5000 of them last year and never had a dud. So if there cheap, around the £100 quid mark. I would snap them up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quickshot Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 Lyalvale are a super cartridge and would use them if only they were a bit cheaper! If your using 7's what are you shooting? I wouldnt go any smaller than a 6.5 for game/ pigeons etc and you get less of a chance of penetrating to kill the bird. But for clays they would be brilliant.

They are £120-00 a 1000, which is pretty cheap for game loads around this neck of the woods at present,. I am not sure what there full price is though? I noticed during the game season a lot of the shooters were using them in their old english game guns, but that may be because of the limited choice now available for 2 1/2" cartridges. Any further info appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oozelumbird Posted March 20, 2007 Report Share Posted March 20, 2007 I used them for clays and tree rats. There a very good cartridge. Middle of the road - good for everything i think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
