Anybody here ever use these shells? Any sense of pressures involved?

One of the Flagship Competition Loads in Spain. World Championship wins in Pigeons, Helice, and Trap.
High quality shell. Company was founded by a Cuban exile and manned by him until his death a few years ago. His sons, I believe took over and continue to manage as best as I know. The founder was a very Keen Pigeon shot and a long time member of the Somontes Club in Madrid. The renown Spanish Pigeon champion Jose Maria Fuster was probably the most famous (winningest) sponsored shooter in the company's stable . Shells continue to factor heavily into European competition.
The fellow in Florida that currently imports them is a keen Bunker shooter . He started importing these 65mm game loads at the request of customers.
Use with Confidence.

Thank you for the background info, Mel!

It only took about 15 minutes of navigating in circles to find more information but I think this is the link to the shells Lloyd shows above (published pressure of 6100 psi): https://ammofix.com/product/armusa-...x-of-25-shells-from-15-49-free-shipping/

If the data is correct these are truly low pressure shells at a published 6100 psi.

I buy my Armusa 2.5 shells from claysammo.com. $145.00 a case and free shipping. They work great in vintage guns.

Ditto on the above. I bought several cases when reloading components were all but unavailable and they were low pressure and broke clays just fine.

I've gone through at least a case of the 12 gauge and almost as much in 16 gauge. Been quite happy with the quality and when I manage to do my part, breaks clays very well

I've also bought from claysammo.com and they get orders shipped pretty quickly.


I have become addicted to English hammered shotguns to the detriment of my wallet.
