Another vote for Gamebore Velocity fibre....always use them and never had a problem yet.....  :hunter:

 
I have only ever used Gamebore.  I have shot the cheap end (Super Gems) up to White Gold, never had a duff cart, ever.

 
I too can vouch for Gamebore Velocities.  

Shot them for 18mths (about 8k) and never had a single problem.  

I only changed because I had to find a softer cartridge.  Now I've had the full ISIS fitted I may well go back to them.

 
Shot another two slabs of Eley Olympics this weekend.
They all went bang.
Shame they aren't continuing the manufacture of them.

 
Big price hike though isn't it.
Release price £175 then £190!
Loyal customers aren't mugs.
I need 600 a weekend normally for me and her.
Will have to look elsewhere.
Really annoys me as I like the brand a lot.

Jem, can you get Rio Target 20 to try? Love them. Spot on in all respects. £159.

 
Jem, spoke to a big stockist /distributor today. They are just rebranding them and repackaging calling them Olympic Blues and putting the price up.

He acknowledged that he had all the same issues that I have had. Maybe the price increase is to fund a quality control check?
Not so sure about the 'just rebranding' them bit as they will be available in 24gm and more shot sizes???

 
Lyvale express plastic wad  & gamebore evo  fibre for me 

Tried Eleys,  too smeary

Mart  

 
I too like gamebore velocity fibre - when I can find them near me at a decent price.

Phil still stocking gamebore at a decent price? Might have to grab some velocity in 8 (guess they are basically a super gem?)

He has the CS range (red case) £160 per thou, gamebore loaded for CS Sporting, I'm sure very similar to Super Gems gamebore loaded for Mid Wales etc

Best to give Phil a ring to check what he has in as carts sell fast etc
