kiddy1 Posted August 6, 2009 Report Share Posted August 6, 2009 Hi people, just been down to the local gun shop and came home with 1000 of these cartridges as they seemed to be a good price. Having not used them before I just want to know what you guys/gals think of them. Maybe list good and bad points? I shoot with a 12g Beretta Silver pigeon which normally has no issues with recoil, do these carts pack a punch? Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beardo Posted August 6, 2009 Report Share Posted August 6, 2009 i've used them loads, always liked them. can't answer the recoil side as they go in my s/a Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest topshot_2k Posted August 6, 2009 Report Share Posted August 6, 2009 they are ok especially for the price but not as hard hitting as gamebore clear pigeon or RC SIPE. They are very good on pheasants also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edward Posted August 6, 2009 Report Share Posted August 6, 2009 They are a good cartouche, they pack a good punch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nel Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 Thats the only cart i use for game. I use them in a semi-auto & recoil is minimal but a different story on my browning with a solid butt-end. Perfect all day long in the S/A.

Admiral Von Tirpitz Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 Have used them, but still say Gamebore Clear Pigeon in 32g load pack a better punch, its probably in the mind though, so if you like, then stick to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smogs Posted August 8, 2009 Report Share Posted August 8, 2009 I shoot with a 686Special & an SX3..................these are the babies, stick with them, cured my cycling issues on my SX3, thoroughly good value, packs a good puch for the dollar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MerseaDavid Posted August 8, 2009 Report Share Posted August 8, 2009 They are all me and dad use now. They pattern well and hit the birds hard. They kill out to a very good distance and they dont hirt the shoulder. They are better than alot of other pigeon cartridges and we highly recommend them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George1990 Posted August 8, 2009 Report Share Posted August 8, 2009 Keep an eye out for these. Have used a fair few Clear Pigeon and like them a lot but at 155 for 1000 hard to beat. Anyone used Fiocchi 32g No.5 (PL 32) Hunting Carts? What you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
