Problems getting Eley subsonics

[fitcher 0]

I've noticed that a lot of people on here have found , as I have , that Eley subs suit their rifles .

 

I've been using them since I first got my rimfire and tried out a selection of ammo makes . Found that the Eleys grouped best with my rifle and decided that I could live with the smell these rounds produce .

 

On the last couple of trips to my RFD , he has had none in stock and told me yesterday that he had no idea when he might be getting some as Eley are sending so many out to the States at the moment .

 

Has anybody else experienced this and does anybody know where I might be able to get some in Cornwall ?

Queer you say that. I use eley subs and went to my rfd a fortnight ago for some but all he had was 50! told me to come back in a week. Went back on friday (nearly 2 weeks later) to be told he still didnt have any and to come back in a week.

He has others but i like eley subs and dont really want to change.

Yeah , I ended up buying a few hundred CCI's as I was getting too low on ammo for comfort !

 

Seeing where you are , this may not be just a local problem .

 

Thanks for the reply

Same down here. Had to go back to Winchester and they're rubbish in comparison in my CZ.

 

They're cheaper, but I miss more so they probably work out less cost efficient.

 

Been waiting for Eleys since the end of May

Did they have many in stock ? Seems they are getting to be a rarity !!

looked plenty he didnt say there was any issue getting them but keeps telling he sells more winchesters than any others

 

cant understand why eley are sending them to the states as moderaters are banned out there so why use subs

Yeah , a lot of my mates swear by the Winchesters , but my CZ prefers the Eleys .

 

Hope somebody from Eley comes onto the forum to explain where they're all going !

i went to litts last month and asked for winchester or eley to try and they didnt have any as they said there wont be any more until september time so i left with some rws dynamite nobel and they seem to be grouping good in my rifle so they will do for now.

Some of the American small-bore websites are getting excited about these brilliant new Ely-Remington supersonics they've tested. Very pricey apparently . . . .Do you think someone waved a big fat contract at Ely? Perish the thought.

Same here guys - tried the two suppliers local to me and ended up getting CCI's as they had no eley left.

Hi.

Redbeck Shooting Supplies in Wakefield have plenty and at the right price too (£32.50 for 500)

I have just stocked up today with Eley's, my 452 doesn't like much else, especially CCI's which group rubbish and too many flyers/
