Orange 12 gauge shells?
- Thread starter Dacton
- Start date
I thought they were red?
I have some orange CIL Imperials kicking around in the ammo chest
- Location
- London, Ontario
AA's are DEF red in colour
FWIW, Clever Mirage makes a few shotshells in a yellow-orange (really more yellow than orange though):
-T4 JK6 (12ga, 2-3/4", 36 gram)
-T4 Royal Game (12ga, 2-3/4", 40 gram)
Their T4 Bol D'or are a goldish-orange, in 12ga, 2-3/4", 24 and 28 gram. The 24 gram is an exceptional International Trap load. I think they have a sporting version of this one as well.
The "Orangest" one they make is a sporting clays load, the T2 Sporting, in 12ga, 2-3/4", 28 gram.
I remember looking over the catalog with Susan Nattrass too many years ago now - she was a huge fan of the Mirage shells and shot the black-hulled 'Granditalia' 24 gram loads a TON. Things might have changed, but I'd bet the Mirage T2's would fit what you're looking for... don't expect to find slug or buck in that loading though!

While this thread has been answered I have the product code for the Fiocchi...
12MS28L#75. these are 2-3?4inch 1oz multi sport loads .
The code I mentioned is for 7-1/2 shot.
They cycle well in my new Browning Silver and are clean burning as well.
As for wad build up ( plastic fouling ) I can not say as I only ran 100 rounds down the barrel and didnt notice anything untowards.
