Thats a question you need to ask the maker.Originally Posted by Anothermiss
But...
These are hand made and selected / graded.
Cheaper end user costs are only achieved by mass production / automation.
These are really niche products aimed at a pretty specialised market.
There are brands of other slugs out there, produced in similar ways (though heavier and not as suited to sub12), that are sold at similar prices.
They won't be for everyone, and the price will put some shooters off.
I always use the best pellets for my rifles, even for ratting. For the uses I'll put these slugs to (daytime rabbits and greys), my consumption over a season, will be relatively low, so not really a probem for me.
Bootneck Bob, mentioned the cost of comp shooting with these, with possibly 80 (maybe 100 with zero checking) shots taken on a comp day. So at the current costs, thats about £25 quid for using these slugs.
Just to put that in perspective, in the 80's, I used to shoot clays (reasonably competetively). My costs for a shoot day back then were about £60. Thats nearly 30 years ago.
