New Paper Shells

[J. Scott Hanes]

This "New" item, offered under the Remington brand at Vista is for retail to consumer sales only. There still is not sufficient supply of raw materials to offer to the retail or distributor trade at this time. For the volume trap/skeet shooter, at $20 a box this will not garner much attention. For the casual shooter and someone who has a vintage shotgun, perhaps the price is worth it. Buyer's choice.

If they were Flyer loads meaning 1 1/4 ounces of #6’s going at 1300 plus I’d give them the $200 for a flat no problem . But a flat of these for pigeons would last me maybe a year .

These got a lot of attention over on trapshooters.com. Mostly negative because of the price. But as I noted over there, Vista is offering STS shells for $15/box and Nitro 27 at $17/box. If you’re going through a flat or more a week, it’s all pretty pricey.

Craig,

Federal ran some Paper Flyer loads in Copper 7.5's earlier in the year. 1330 fps if I remember correctly.

I got a case but haven't broken into them yet.
