EdSolomons Posted January 26, 2017 Report Share Posted January 26, 2017 Buzz I'm sure there are plenty people shooting over 1000 game shells a season. I recon I'll have done best part of 4k And there is a surprisingly large number of people shooting 20/30/40/50 days a season. I'm pretty sure Hull make more game shells than clay loads which (if my memory serves right) is quite interesting... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wymberley Posted January 26, 2017 Report Share Posted January 26, 2017 No chance not enough demand im afraid! Yep, Ed, that's what I was told. Can't blame Hull though, if they're busy loading 4s into IG and 3s into HP Ext' because they'll sell, it tells you where they think our sport is going.

deershooter Posted January 27, 2017 Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 George you do make me laugh I went to the butchers today for pork pie and sausage ! Do you know what when I asked for a joint of pork he didn't say sorry you can not have that I don't know how much my next pig will be ! It looks to me more like you would like to sit on the components you have at the old price sell the cartridges at the new price Just had NSI 28 gram 8 shot cartridges £139 per 1000 at gunshop within 25 miles of Grantham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rbrowning2 Posted January 27, 2017 Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 George must be correct just looked on the siarm website and lead shot is now £4.04 per kg with the Italian vat added. Their cases are also up in price but fortunately these days with the likes of fes do not have to buy from them, but they are a useful site for price comparison.

It looks to me more like you would like to sit on the components you have at the old price sell the cartridges at the new price Just had NSI 28 gram 8 shot cartridges £139 per 1000 at gunshop within 25 miles of Grantham to tell you the truth you hit the nail on the head if i can keep going on a sold order basis on the swag i have in stock i think thats good so playing out month by month then i can decide when to buy now lead is up this month and the price is dictated by the previous month average so was dear to buy in january prices so far look like been more dear in february so we have to watch february to buy in march and so on now spring summer can normaly buy as they say most demand is car batterys but i can flip a coin and buy or stand down i chose not to so will write down februarys prices and see about march now the other day i went to buy 70 000 into euros got bid 1.15 did not buy yesterday it got 17.50 thats 2.5 cents more making 17500 more cents which is a big difference in my pocket so i will keep ploding along and try and keep my prices down by watching the markets if in the end i loose and have to buy then they will have to go up a very big bit instead of a little and its the chaps out there who have to pay so i dont think i will dive it at the moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rbrowning2 Posted January 27, 2017 Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 That stratergy could be a very big gamble, come March and beyond with article 50 triggered you will need a very good crystal ball to know what will happen to the value of the pound. Then also the risks with the price of lead. Could win or lose, good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
