Farmboy91 Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 Morning all, Just wondering if these would be of any use to the fowler's on here, having to part with some of my collection for financial reasons. The box is unopened. I posted here rather than the sales section as I have literally no idea on what they are worth and can't find anything online to help. I'd rather they now go to someone who will use them as appose to them sitting in my cupboard. Mods obviously of this isn't ok please delete accordingly.

Pushandpull Posted February 26, 2020 Report Share Posted February 26, 2020 I think that these were loaded by Al Myers, using black Remington cases with an Eley sticker. "Eley" bismuth eights certainly came from that source and shot very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pushandpull Posted February 26, 2020 Report Share Posted February 26, 2020 It may be the case that there are still some of these "out there", tucked away in dealers' stores. It may be worth enquiring. Not many years ago, when I was still using my eight, I found at least three RFDs in the eastern counties which had a box or two. Mallard Barn in Suffolk had more 8 Bi in stock than I wanted or needed, having got a load in for the boss - a keen fowler. One shop had a box and a half plus a few Hevishot 12s. I was pleased to buy at the right price and he was pleased to see them gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
