Are you anything to do with them?

 

That website opens to a front page with nothing but a logo... is it broken or something?

Also what sets them aside from the tried and tested brands? Do they list their components?

 

I used the cheapest clear pigeon 30g 6's today and dropped some good height pheasant... be good to know whats good about these if they cost more? 

click on the face book logo ,it brings lots of stuff up

No for someone who wants them for 40-60 metre pheasants. 

He made some with a PVA obturator but unfortunately the shoot in question would not allow them. Even though they dissolve in less than an hour, the argument was that anyone could tell them they had PVA discs with no knowledge of whether they were or not until everywhere was covered in them.

Interesting but G is going for pure fibre only now.

No worries, from what I understand if you order 10k plus you can have whatever you like printed on them too. 

I can see it now, 'PW high bird club' 

😂

Or maybe the 100 yard boys 

Not sure about 100 

but I’m in the 60 plus club 

they don’t appear to have anything to offer in the non lead fibre affordable alternative for the short chambers 

I shall watch for developments 

😊👍

Empire cartridges look good .But who needs those silly speeds?.After about 1250 you lose it at range.All it’s doing is blowing patterns.if you look at velocity a lot of the long range loads Ie Winchester super speed they are about 1250 .why are cartridge makers turning out shells at a stated 1450.I think these super fast cartridges are aimed at a lot of younger shots who have been brainwashed  into thinking they need them for killing at long range. Speeds only needed for steel.If it’s not broke don’t mend. Years ago shooting at long range meant big loads of heavy shot moving slow.

It's like cup holders on Amereican SUVs. XXX's has two so YYY's has three therefore ZZZ's to be better has to have four. What I'd like is a true 65mm cartridge, with 6 1/2 English shot...a true ounce...and a quality felt (not builder's board) wad. In a low brass paper case.
