    By far the best cartridge Ive used. RC sipe 32gr 6s are a great rough shooting cartridge. I had to stop using them as my local supply ran out.

    I got a box of their "Sipe" 32g 6s in redmills in goresbridge the other week to give them a go.. Only used a few so far but gettin the right results.. They kick a bit more than the eley supergame ive been using but seem to have better knocking power.. Dropped a crow with snow on it with the first one out of the box something id never have expected the eley to do.. Priced well too as they have a reputation of being a pricey shell.. I got them for the same price as the supergame. 7.50 per box.

    Simply top of the range cartridge very fast so you won't need much lead on a bird.

    RC 2's are the best shell Ive ever used, far superior to anything else and a fraction of the price of some models of Eley's.
    I get 5 32g at €8.50 a box and not many birds get away :)

    Good cartridge. At least some of their effectiveness is they use European shot sizes which are at least half a size bigger than English pellet sizes. Wish they would use progressive powder though.

    +1 Would agree that the RC are a very good shot. Bought two slabs of the Sipe 7s from Niall Kirwin in Lakeland Shooting Centre (he's the Irish distributor for RC) during the summer for pigeon and crows and well worth; real good hard hitting cartridge and not over expensive. Before the pheasant season started bought RC Disperante 33gram 9's for first shot at pheasant and woodcock and I'm seriously impressed with them!! Think he had them in a 7.5. also, well worth buying a few boxes!!
