Guest Posted September 19, 2015 Report Share Posted September 19, 2015 Hello all, Asked for some Eley First carts today (the red ones) and was presented with the new 'select' carts (the new white ones). I know these are new from Eley but are they a straight up replacement for old red ones? It's no biggy, I like the new ones, just wondering.

Gordon R Posted September 19, 2015 Report Share Posted September 19, 2015 I believe that they are the replacement for the old "First" shells. They have had some decent reviews. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesMoody3 Posted September 19, 2015 Report Share Posted September 19, 2015 I got along with them alright the other day, never used them before but I seem to remember people not liking the old ones very much and something about having misfires? Worked fine for me, just felt a bit tired after going through 200 28 grams in a morning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 19, 2015 Report Share Posted September 19, 2015 Nice, I like them too so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rovercoupe Posted September 19, 2015 Report Share Posted September 19, 2015 Put a slab through the sxs and they are quite nice not too punchy but seem to hit the clays hard. might try them in 28g and see what they are like through the semi.

malmick Posted September 20, 2015 Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 I put 100 28g loads through my Versa Max this morning and couldn't tell any difference from the Olympic Blues I normally use. Cycled the action perfectly so got a thousand to give them a proper go. Cheers, Mick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chappers1987 Posted September 21, 2015 Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 Shot a few thousand of these now and have had no problems at all. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discobob Posted October 15, 2015 Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 Shooting 24 9's for Skeet - I think they are rather superb and lovely and smooth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbob Posted October 15, 2015 Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 I had the option of buying 1000 of these at a special price (£155), but plumped for new Velocity Plus instead. There wasn't much difference in the price, but next time I think i'll give the Eley's a go as feedback seems pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
