For what it's worth I've just tried the 28 gram 81/2 sporting and the 28gram 71/2 trap F Blacks at Greenfields this afternoon. I was immediately impressed by the quality of breaks through my Browning Ultra with I.C. chokes in both barrels, the clays just disappeared.
My immediate perception was that the sporting loads were a bit thumpy, I used these first. However when I swapped to the trap cartridges these seemed to be smoother with less recoil but again the breaks were awesome.
I have bought some 24 gram trap loads which I intend trying out on Sunday. Hopefully these will perform well but without so much recoil.
They are certainly a very clean cartridge as there was no leading in the barrels or burnt powder, in fact it was difficult to tell that the gun had been used.

Well tried the 24 gram F Blacks today. Well impressed, good breaks at distance, comfortable to shoot and very clean burning.

Well glad to hear you folks like them. I have been saying it for several years now on several websites. It is always good to share a good product with those who are interested in quality.
So many people across the world say the same thing. They sure as hell cannot be all wrong .
Several people do not want me to have a say without slaging off what ever I say......but hey....am I bothered ....?? Certainly not :laugh:
Glad you like them :smile:

I've been trying to track down some TT 2's . I eventually e mailed Graham Morris as a last resort and was surprised to receive a reply from him first thing this morning.
Upshot is that I phoned him back. told him what I wanted and he has added my TT 2's to the order being delivered later this week.
Really helpful guy ,very happy to supply 500 for me to try.
Great service from a company that deserves to succeed as it puts the customer first.

No through a shop. I don't agree with wholesalers dealing direct with the public. You either want to be a retailer or a wholesaler. it's not fair on the shops if they are by passed.

Agree in principle, but that can depend on the shop and how they have dealt with stocking and pricing.

Golden Trap 28g. Thinking about giving these a try?
Nic, in your opinion, what is the best Fiocchi shell for OT? I have had little to do with Fiocchi shells and know very little about them.

Only personal opinion.....and i am crap at OT...so a bit of a weird question....but....if you put it in the right place Golden Trap 7.5 and Official Trap 7 absolutely mince them up :smile: I do not mind either. I like the 7 shot because it makes you more accurate (i had a 23 on Wednesday with them....it was obviously lucky....and down to tips from my all time favourite coach Claudio who had the time to give me some advice).
Well done on the 23, nothing wrong with that Nic! Ah Claudio, yes a great guy, I had a little tuition from him some years ago and so did my son in law. So do Official Trap and Golden trap perform differently and is there a price difference too?

yet to see any type of trap target that a FOB 24g MONDIAL 7.5 (english 7)does not destroy through 1/2 choke ......about £30-£50 cheaper too and baby soft on the shoulder, most 24g shells throw nice tight patterns through the right choke/gun and it really does help if the person behind the rubber bit can shoot :hunter:
