CARTRIDGE COST

[Lewdan 17]

Getting ready to start on the crows and pidgeon before long, checked my cartridge stock and i only have 100 left so i will have to get more... the ones i have at the moment were purchased last year i think they worked out about £120 per thousand but i have heard that prices have increased quite a bit havent phoned local supplier yet just wondering what you guys pay in your part of the world

i use 12 gauge 30 or 32 gms

I bought 5000 28g 7's in January and they worked out at £156 but only because I bought in bulk and they are not heavy game cartridges, I use them for everthing I shoot however.

I would be looking at paying at least £180/1000 for 30g and closer £200 for 32g.

It depends on the quality and the amount really, I have saved myself buying shells for 18 months now and so dont get caught in price rises.

Have a look here as an indicator www.justcartridges.com.

The prices will be the same all around the country give or take a few quid, one word of advice dont be tempted to go too cheap, they will not deliver the same satisfaction for you.

Litts have a few deals on at the moment, get in touch before they run out.
