The Range of Lyalvale World Cup cartridges were introduced in 1989 in recognition of cartridges being the first British cartridge to win a U.I.T. World Cup on Suhl, Germany.


The World Cup range of cartridges has one of the best reputations of any cartridge ever produced and are currently being used by some of the world's top Sporting, Skeet and Trap shooters.

 

To achieve such a reputation we only use the finest components. The case is a transparent blue case with a deep 16mm head. The powder used is the very well respected Vectan AS made in France by the SNPE Group. AS powder achieves consistent ballistics while being clean burning and efficient. AS powder is single base Nitrocellulose based flake powder.

The full container plastic wad used in the World Cup range is designed to protect the shot when accelerating through the barrel as well as opening when leaving the muzzle to avoid scattering the shot as it leaves the muzzle.

The lead shot used in World Cup cartridges has 7.2% Antimony and other hardeners for the very best patterns. This shot is made to the highest standards in Italy by a specialist lead shot manufacturer.
