lksopener Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 Complete load of marketing ********. The Eley rep didn’t like the feedback at the Northern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TIGHTCHOKE Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 Eley will sponsor one or more well known clay shooters who will be seen using them and then people will start to use them. I will save my money and shoot more ordinary shells. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salopian Posted May 18, 2018 Report Share Posted May 18, 2018 Just telephoned IMI industries who used to be Eley's Parent company . No Titanium available in Europe , the F1 boys have bought it all . So sadly Eley cartridges will be produced using Lead shot . Cheap shot as well, into the bargain as Gamebore have got all the Diamond shot. Also they are not using Nickle , the Eley Sales rep was misquoted , he actually said 'Fickle' referring to the moaning clayshooters who will not pay his outlandish prices. When will the British Cartridge manufacturing industry be featured on 'Rip Off Britain' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When will the British Cartridge manufacturing industry be featured on 'Rip Off Britain' Probably about the same time as they cease telling porkies about their product range. Having tested the 7&1/2s as recommended by another PW member I then tried too get the Superb 7s in fibre as detailed on their web-site thinking that they might just make a decent pigeon cartridge for the Chapuis. Fortunately, Gamebore do the Blue Diamond in fibre and (actually) in 7s in addition to the super smooth Super Game High Bird SGHB). Have to say, provided it's not excessively extortionate, I don't mind paying for something that is reasonable and that does what I want it to. PS Now just watch Gamebore do away with the SGHB now that we have the Regal offering. Edited May 18, 2018 by wymberley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
