That's a hell of a bargain.
I wouldn't mind a case at that price:D

snipe02 · 04-05-2012 8:40pm

ive been getting them from ger smith in kilkenny 24 euro for 4 boxes 7 euro for single boxes

Farmlife · 04-05-2012 8:55pm

Would be great if there was a thread of good offers on ammo from different dealers, know courtlough do 1000 ely clay rounds for 180, but with the season coming in it might be worth while stocking up on some game rounds

EPointer=Birdss · 04-05-2012 9:40pm

Have you contact info for the chap in Kilkenny? Are they WC also?

Mr.Woodcock · 04-05-2012 9:51pm

Does anyone no where you can get Winchester cartridges, in the Meath/Louth/north Dublin area? Many people use Remington cartridges? Was using 34g 8's for woodcock, where fantastic, but bit pricey at 11e a box!

think they are only 7.50 in redmills goresbridge 15 euro saving on a slab

kildare.17hmr · 04-05-2012 10:26pm

€9 is for a single box which is all i tend to buy for the shottie unless im goin shootin clays, reckon i could get them cheaper if i bought a slab but that sounds like a great price! Didnt mind anyway because i got 60 winchester 55gr softpoints for €45!!

rabbit assassin · 04-05-2012 11:12pm

Remember the red ones with long brass that came in boxes of 10 ?? Havent seen them in a long long time. Best cartridges I ever bought I reckon

6.50 a box if you buy 1000

garv123 · 05-05-2012 12:04am

I use eley supergame 32g six last year on phessies and found them good.
USed them on a few crows too.

I'm going to try and get a 32g 7 for next season to give more of a spread for the first shot.

32g 7 32g 6 and if it comes to it 34g 5 is what i hope to be using next year.

I nkow there was a thread on them a while back, but what is the deal can they be got anymore, havent used them for years i remember they were good but tricky to get into the belt though!

ferrete · 05-05-2012 3:43am

I use 32g 7s (velox) I think brilliant but use 36 r 38g 5 r 4 for ducks

Are they not a bit overkill? I find 34g 5 more than enough

rsole1 · 05-05-2012 9:04am

Remington shureshot 32gm 7's at 3 cartons (750) €90. No it's no joke that's the sort of deal you'll get at Scully's Athlone. Wednesday or Thursday is best as the fella on those days is keen to deal. The only reason I'm telling you is I don't want / need anymore.

Fairly sure the place is closing down - even though they deny it - but why would you sell for lees than you're buying it in?

Was it lately you bought these? I was there last week looking for bullets and never taught about asking about shells

terminator2 · 05-05-2012 1:49pm

Remmington 32g no6 best cartridge.......fact:D:D

meathstevie · 05-05-2012 3:13pm

Gamebore or Sipe 32g 6's for all my shotgun shooting. They're grand for pigeons, pheasant, rabbit, crows etc etc. I don't really bother with any heavier stuff unless it's on the off chance of encountering a fox.

No, they weren't,he said the ones with the long brass,which were Superspeed.

Hunter21 · 05-05-2012 6:39pm

I rang the fella in Scullys there now,asked about those shells,he said they are €80 a case,that you must be mistaken and that "they're like newspapers,there's nothing out of them". Glad I rang before making the trip!

well like the rc's but would like to throw two more into the mix
gamebore black gold 32gr 5 and eley vip game 32 gr 5 use both these for pheasants and rabbits and if had to choose my overall favourate cartridge it would be the vip game in 32 gr 5 both these also come in 32gr 6

Probably to do with the length of the brass.

You do deals face to face. Yellow jackets 22lr 10 boxes, 1 carton, €25. I bought three cartons of AAA €60 a carton. Of course at those prices most stuff must have gone. Half a dozen fellas in Roscommon are well happy - looks like the end is nigh though.

He said Remminton shureshot 32g are like "newspaper, nothing in them", as you can see he hasn't a clue what he's talking about.

I went into him lad and he wouldn do any deals. To be honest he didnt give me much hop at all. Because I was enquiring about bullets and stuff. I reckon the end is close too because 2 people came in one was asking about a 170and he said he had none to try elsewhere. And another lad asked for something and he wouldn order it because he said its cheaper online.

richiedel123 · 11-05-2012 9:02pm

And goin along wit this thread I love rc 3s. I use 28 gramm 7s and 8s and find them as good as anything. I shoot duck pheasant pigeon everything wit them. They are long brass ones and never jam in my repeater

TriggerPL · 11-05-2012 10:56pm

I use 32g 6 and 7 eley. VIP 's 10 euro a box if ya buy 250 of them . With out a dout the best cartridge ever I shot . The 6 are more that able for duck

Hunter21 · 11-05-2012 11:03pm

RC's are getting rave reviews on here.

I find RC2's a fair fast shell on clays! :eek:

Read the post!! As in no money out of them.

The story of 3 cases for €90 smells like Bullsh1t,no-one else here claims to have got it!

richiedel123 went down to do a face to face deal and was quoted €80 a case, so your story does'nt hold water!
