bullmastiff 615 Posted August 6, 2013 Report Share Posted August 6, 2013 With the Harvest starting, I need to get some heavy cartridges for the foxes but I'm struggling to get them? Mole Valley Farmers and Scats don't do any (my usual source of cartridges) Online, I found some nice, 1500fps, 36g 3's by RC at £11.60 a box of 25 I don't/won't need to many so don't want to order a shed load of them. 50 would probably be plenty.. JustCartridges.com are charging £15 delivery for orders under 1000 cartridges. Thats almost £40 for 50 cartridges I pay that for 250 normal cartridges! Anyone any ideas? I live in South Somerset if that makes any differance? Thanks for any help. Luke 1 Quote Link to post

PLEDGEY 496 Posted August 6, 2013 Report Share Posted August 6, 2013 Give Bartletts a call. They are at junction 24 off of the M5 at Bridgwater. Market Way Bridgwater, Somerset TA6 6PP 01278 664568 Not saying they will have any, but they are extremely helpful and can get their hands on most things. They are also cheaper than Mole Valley and Country Wide Stores. 1 Quote Link to post

bullmastiff 615 Posted August 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 Give Bartletts a call. They are at junction 24 off of the M5 at Bridgwater.

They are also cheaper than Mole Valley and Country Wide Stores. Gave them a ring, real nice guy answered the phone and gave me the advice of trying Sportsman gun centre just outside Yeovil as it would be a fair way to travel for a few cartridges. Phoned Sportsman, they sell mainly Eley and RC but didn't have the type I was after but had something very similar The RC40, their 4.40 for a pack of 10.so not too bad on price and cheaper than I've found online so I'll be off to pick some up soon! Anyone tried these cartridges and what did you think of them? (I'll be getting them in shot size 3) Cheers for the help. Luke Quote Link to post
geordieh 74 Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 Hi Mole Valley do Express 36g 1's at £7.45 a box at Frome get mine every year for our Scotland trip and it is still on their price list online Geordie Quote Link to post
Red-Grouse 1 Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 Rc 40's are a great cartridge, got a mate that swears by them. I normally use gamebore mammoth 50g BB's if looking for foxes but to be fair I've probs shot most with victory 35g 5's when not looking for them and the dogs flushed one out of cover!
