By dirty, I mean a burned on layer in the barrels, mainly around the forcing cones. Not the colour of the paper when pushed through; just to be clear. Maybe they have changed in the last few years?

Yes I remember that period although it has long since ceased, even then it never bothered me as performance seemed unaffected. Judging things on recoil and breaking ability, the price difference between Hull and Eley remains a huge mystery to me?!Also, I stopped using Superbs because they had a problem with not burning all the propellant flakes, which would be left in the gun around the ejectors. No mystery to me why Eley are cheaper than Hull..

I sometimes use inside the front of the car over the steering wheel when the sun is strong through the windows to warm them up a bit :wink: .Keeping next week's cartridges in the airing cupboard seems to cure unburnt propellant problems particularly game cartridges that have been kept for a year. Works whenever I've suggested it.
You have been looking at Don's photo of Cheryl and Dickie ....... HahahahaI saved money on a cartridge belt and load from the front of my long johns when its chilly :lol: :.:
Hmmm i tried a slab of pro one,s 28 and 24 grms the other week, both recoiled more than my usual eley olimpics, and the breaks certainly wern't any better with the more expensive hulls and this was on long edgy crossers not close stuff,not worth the extra dosh imoYes I remember that period although it has long since ceased, even then it never bothered me as performance seemed unaffected.

I agree entirely, the Pro One has a lot of fans who keep telling me it's as sweet as a nut , which I'm sure it is but I've personally not been able to justify it's price difference or more to the point the Sovereigns ridiculous price difference compared to Eley Olympic or Superbs. In fact the only people who shoot Sov's tend to be sponsored :lol: .Hmmm i tried a slab of pro one,s 28 and 24 grms the other week, both recoiled more than my usual eley olimpics, and the breaks certainly wern't any better with the more expensive hulls and this was on long edgy crossers not close stuff,not worth the extra dosh imo
Beverley are selling F-blu 24gm £158 and RC2s. I'm there next Wednesday so I'll give them a try. If it works for OT that'll do. Meanwhile where's my Red Shot.
I am so annoyed that I had forgotton to contact Tony Busvine in time and it was thought that someone was going to drop out so I could have his place but alas he did not so I'm out.Hi Phil, going to listen for words of wisdom from David Kostelecky, there's talk of 6 rounds of OT so I may not be allowed out of class, but a box or two of Fiocchi shouldn't worsen things. I'm looking forward to it. .
