jamie g 17 Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 any one used them and what they like also average price i have been quoted 28.50 for 100 that seams alot to me mate you mite as well say £15 for 50 rounds but if needs must then go for it because by the time you have payed fuel to get them cheaper somewhere else it would have cost you more in the long run.

Deker 3,491 Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 Personal I found them to be a pretty good but if you can get hold of hornady or federal give them a crack I found them more consistent Winchesters good too but @ £28, 100 round here I thought they were taking the ****! Just got 500 Hornady for £100, I wanted 1000 but RFD only had the 500 so I got the 1000 rate!!..Stilll far too much!!! Quote Link to post

Deker 3,491 Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 (edited) mate i am the same i can only buy 100 at a time how the heck can you buy 1000 ? i was told the max they wil allow you is 250 There is NO max, there are only guidelines, it is down to what each region decides and each individual can justify. I am a professional and use a lot ...simple as... 1000 buy, 1200 hold...same with several of my other calibres including my .223!! In addition to my personal FAC, I am also Secretary of a rifle Club at Bisley and FAC holder for the club ... .22LR .22WMR .223Rem .243Win .303 7.62/.308 7mm Rem Mag ALL with 5000 buy and hold...not total...each!!!! We have a big cabinet at the armoury!! It's what you can justify!! Edited October 11, 2008 by Deker Quote Link to post
riggers 2 Posted October 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 ah i see you have 303 i got a chance to fire one in the army man they are great eh lovelly things to shoot a real mans gun i say you lucky sod Quote Link to post
SportingShooter 0 Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 £22 a 100 where I am but they are bloody hard to get, so I buy as many as he has in the shop, normally about 300. I can hold 600 HMR and buy 500 at any one time, thats all I'll need for now. I find the Winchesters work the best in my CZ and that's why I stick to them if I can. Your rifle WILL be different, buy a box of each one you can muster and try them, the only way that you will find out. Regards SS Quote Link to post
