GStrider Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 I'm Considering buying 250 Eley Olympics 7.5 next weekend for £33 or should I get 250 CSP's for £40 which is what I currently use but the extra cost does add up after a couple of weeks. What do you think should I spend the extra money to shoot ABT on Sunday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferret Master Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 Buy a box of each and see which YOU prefer. FM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smallbore Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 Eley OT is O.K. as a general 'cooking' cartridge. I used them mixed 33%/66% with Gamebore Super Steel for my shooting. Super Steel for nearer shots and lead Eley OT for anything edge on or over about 40yds. Regards smallbore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlaserF3 Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 I used to shot Olympic Trap cartridges till until about six months ago. They went from a decent cartridge with not a lot of recoil to one that kicked a lot, far too much for me. It seems as if they changed something in the loading process. I will not shoot them again.

clayslayer Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 The only thing Eley have changed in olympic trap cartridges is the wad and the name olympics and the box . The ballistics stay the same, still one of the best cartridges on the market for the price. Try them i thing you will like them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wisecobandit Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 I like OT's altho it depends on the shooting ground as they are plastic wad so you cant shoot them everywhere.Never had a problem with them and cant say ive noticed any difference with them recently.
