Four favourite clay loads from Eley Hawk

clay shooting cartridges

Industry leading manufacturers of fine shotgun cartridges for clay and game shooters, Eley Hawk, have considered the needs of clay shots after national Lockdown 3.0 and nominated a tetrad of cartridges ready for the return to clay shooting. 

Eley Hawk’s Managing Director, Rodrigo Crespo, commented: “We know that once we are able to return to shooting there is going to be a surge in the amount of people attending clay shoots, and that will likely mean a couple things. One, a possible shortage of your favourite load; and two, a chance of not being able to visit your preferred discipline due to high bookings and having to shoot a variety of stands. Therefore, we have come up with our most versatile clay loads with which to tackle any discipline with confidence.”

Eley’s all-round clay loads:

• Titanium 

The premier clay cartridge by Eley is devastatingly effective at all ranges. With ultra-hard, premium lead magnum shot and an exclusive A-Type plastic wad or Kleena fibre wad, the Titanium and Titanium Strike has unrivalled pattern density and consistency ensuring the most powerful clay breaks. Available in shot size 7.5 or 8 (Titanium) 7.5 (Titanium Strike) for serious competition shooting.

• VIP Range

The Eley VIP range has become the benchmark for quality cartridges, created with only the finest components. They include a signature primer and a blend of powder that ensures smooth acceleration, high speeds and outstanding ballistics. Whatever the discipline, there is a suitable VIP cartridge.

• The Superb

This is unquestionably Eley’s most diverse mid to top-level cartridge option and lives up to its name in every sense of the word. The recoil is smooth, with powerful clay breaks in all disciplines. Shells are colour coded for those who like to recognise the shot size and switch loads for different targets or use in top or bottom barrel. Available in plastic and fibre.

• Olympic Blues

A competition cartridge that combines outstanding performance with an affordable price tag. Low recoil, crisp firing and reliably consistent, this is the cartridge of choice for those transitioning into competitive shooting. With an extensive range of loads available and wadded in plastic and fibre, this cartridge can cover all disciplines exceptionally well. 

All of the above are available now in Eley stockists and from online cartridge retailers and vary in price.
