Jim682e Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Any body tried these cartridges before? Being a fan of Fob cartridges i thought I'd buy some of these cartridges today to try out on the pigeons tomorrow,any good are they ? Cartridges are 67mm or 2 5/8 long Red in colour with a 7mm head. Loaded with number 6 shot with plastic wad and Vectan powder. Any views greatly received Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catamong Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Yep, use them all the time for pigeons, got a good deal from my old mucker Haggis at West Country Guns, (but had to buy a 6000 package), I've got a horrible feeling they're going to go up big time soon due to the **** £ / Euro rate, so I may be looking for something a tad cheaper.

Jim682e Posted February 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 So you rate them cat. I am glad about that because me and couple of mates have bought 800 of them. I bought some Fob choc back along to try wish i didn't bother. They smacked me around something rotten. Choc in french stands for SHOCK and that's what happened. Bruised and battered and not to be used again . This is not to said about their clay cartridges like the Viper 28grm 7 1/2 in use for English Sporting pretty good in my book ,I also like Hull Comp X 28 grm 7 1/2 Nice smooth consistent and pretty cheap as well (irrelevant for this topic) Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim682e Posted February 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 (edited) Cat you were wright about those Fob game 30's mate. I had 8 pigeons yesterday with them . Not the best day on pigeons in the wood we shoot but never the less pretty good sport for a Saturday afternoon. They are rangy with most being shot crossing in front of me out over a field of beans that's just sprouting through. Most being about 50-55 yards out were folded up using 1/2 & full choke in my Beretta 682 gold e. will be buying these again. A top pigeon shooting cartridge. :unsure: Jim Edited February 22, 2009 by Jim682e Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
