Agree with Vic & Ham on the Olympics at similar prices but never tried Velocity. Also shot loads of Saga 28gm, 7½ in fibre and found them fast, clean and no FTFs. I've been paying about 160 but they will be going up....
Wantage is on Mars isn't it?was looked at like I had come from mars :huh:
Don,t go telling everyone olimpics are as good as superbs, Eley will put the prices up and i use them currently pay £160,thhink superbs are about £189 ishI think that at the present time Clever cartridges take some beating, followed ( Equalled?) by RC and then Fiocchi.
BUT Fiocchi are possibly best value for money.
Eley seem to have lost their way, in my opinion their best cartridge is Olympics & Blues and the Firsts are good for cheap brand. Vips & Superbs are too dear for the increased? performance, and don't seem to be better than Olympics, punchier yes.
Hah! I might live in Glos but I was born & raised in civilisation. Maybe I'm wrong about Wantage being on Mars, perhaps I'm getting it confused with Didcot..Says the man from deepest darkest Glawstershire :lol: :.:
Yes I had that on two boxes of superbs yesterday!!Eley should try sellotaping the bottom too, 2 boxes pulled out of my bag this morning, top taped nicely and the bloody bottom fell open carts all over the floor and the back of the van
And meYes I had that on two boxes of superbs yesterday!!
Bl**dy annoying.
I just double checked my Superbs and they are definitely taped top and bottom, very annoying and unnecessary, I do the same as you Vic by slitting the tapes. It just seems so much more sensible not to over-engineer things in the first place?!I was about to say 'I'll open my Olympics from the bottom then.' until I checked them and found that the bottoms were sellotaped as well.
I open my slabs with a box cutter like they use supermarkets and then slit the sellotape before I put them in my bag.
