New gameshooting cartridges launched

London gunmaker John Rigby & Co. is offering a new selection of shotgun cartridges.

The new cartridges claim to feature the latest developments in shotgun cartridge technology due to input from Royal Warrant-holding Hull Cartridge Company who loaded the cartridges.

At 65mm (2.5 inches) in length, the cartridges have been designed to fit classic side-by-sides as well as modern over-and-under shotguns.

Managing Director Marc Newton said: “We are best known for our big game rifles, which are used to hunt all around the world, but we are passionate about gameshooting in the UK too. Now our clients will be able to take the Rigby spirit with them to tackle high pheasants as well as the Highveld.”

The cartridges are available directly from Rigby’s London store with fibre wads in traditional game loads for both 12 and 20 bore guns.

The 20-bore ‘Pensbury’ cartridge is available in 28g of No 6 shot, while the 12-bore ‘Sackville’ comes in 28g of No 6 shot or 30g of No 5 shot.
