2006 Artillery Shell Kit of the Year!

climber · November 27th, 2006, 10:32 AM

Please post the Artillery Shell Kit you would call Best for 2006!

climber · November 27th, 2006, 10:48 AM

It is getting more debatable but still in my opinion the best!

Excaliber by World Class

leeca · November 27th, 2006, 11:12 AM

Excaliburs did not come out on 2006, they have been out a couple of years now since changing from Rambo Kid type shells. For 2006 it would have to be the Winco Black Mombas hands down.

Pyrogtp · November 27th, 2006, 11:12 AM

Excalibur/Black Momba

Tie IMO for various reasons!

We are not voting for "best new product" we are posting just best product.
It does not matter when the item was intoduced!

Maybe you should have changed the title to best Shell Kit.. and not of the year..

Ok in that case.. Iron Revenger.. #1 overall

What not Excalibur’s? Nope they had short fuses on the winter kits, the tubes were screwed up and the price went up... that kicks them out of first place in my book

jeff wilson · November 27th, 2006, 11:45 AM

Canister --Excal--with rambo kid -predator 2nd
Ball---Iron Revenger/the grizz shells
Double--double impact--Big Bad shells
Triple--I do not like anything over a double

climber · November 27th, 2006, 12:51 PM

opps never mind!

bmoneyjones · November 27th, 2006, 01:04 PM

After testing several shells this weekend i would say
cannister... X-cal
ball... Total exposure ( I was really impressed with these)

St1dinoh · November 27th, 2006, 01:11 PM

MAMBAS

no doubt in my mind.

the only comparable shells cost more and/or had problems. mambas PWNED 06.

Xikar · November 27th, 2006, 01:25 PM

How about a single shot tube category!

climber · November 27th, 2006, 01:39 PM

OK, No Problemo'! coming right up!

kgb · November 27th, 2006, 02:22 PM

Excalibur Jumbo kits and Beihai Rambo Kids tie for 1st.

IMO Beihai makes the best shells.
Excellent performance and consistency throughout their whole line of shells.

**JoeRatman** · November 27th, 2006, 03:14 PM

Excalibers.
Double Lighting.
Critical Acclaims - there are so very few reloadable mines.

climber · November 27th, 2006, 07:32 PM

I think another item(s) of mention but not best are the Megabanger liberty or World Class Magnum Shells. They for the money are a great pick!

I agree, I shot Mamba's right next to Rambo's, Some shells were equal, some Rambo's were better but never was the Mamba the better shell...now factor in cost and it's a no brainer! Mamba's, SnM's and Xcals are too proud of their pruduct.

Mike · November 27th, 2006, 08:15 PM

Being the crackle hater that I am

I vote for B.A.R...... they have NONE!

P.S. Please don't mistake me for a Black Cat lover....only on rare exceptions

Notice how much harder Beihai shells to find? Less people are carrying them now than ever before. I know there are still the Great Grizzlies and Cowboy Sky Plazmas (rewraps) are around, but just straight up Beihai brand shells are harder to find.

darink300zx · November 27th, 2006, 09:49 PM

Rambo kids for cannisters, libertys for ball shells. Excals are still good but I like the symmetry of rambos.

I liked the World Class "Super Magnum" shell kit with tails. A real nice shell with tails to boot.
At wholesale prices, very cheap.

Artillery shells are some of my favorite items. Keep the votes coming!

RudyG · November 28th, 2006, 11:04 AM

I had the Excal's, Black Mambas, & the 2005 Smoke N' Mirror shells for the 4th and the most comments were made about the shear power of the Excals. But I still love shooting the Double Lightning shells the most.

If the honorable "Diamond Dave" likes em then who could argue with that!

Thanks for the vote Dave!

Beihai Rambo Kids I thought would have been mentioned more here. Maybe because they are hard to get?

I think that is because they are selling these to company's and they are putting their own brand on them.

Like Grizzly Predator or USA Big Guns

shrapnel · November 29th, 2006, 07:25 AM

And Maxblast, which I think are the strongest of the Rambo line.

Pyrogtp · November 29th, 2006, 08:05 AM

Forgot about MaxBlast!! Shame on me! The ONLY thing I do not like about Max blast is the fuse length! Needs to be a couple inches longer!!

countryboy7978 · November 29th, 2006, 09:22 AM

#1 Rambo Kids
#2 1.75" Pyro Formex Bulk canisters
#3 Red, White, and Boom- Red Rhino

scarp9603 · November 30th, 2006, 04:53 PM

My top 5 shell kits are:

Excalibur
Smoke N Mirrors
Black Mamba
Rambo Kid
America Rising

akmojo73 · November 30th, 2006, 06:10 PM

Predators, Mamba's and Liberty,
