JC have always been pricey unfortunately. My local gunshop said 6% on Fiocchi. FBlus now £286, FBlack £291, Fblack fibre £312, F3 plastic £308 and Rossa £350. All 28g.

Churchills for me yesterday. What a difference from 2 weeks ago. 18 degrees, sunny and no wind. Great targets too, possibly a different target setter from the last few shoots? Last time there there I thought was pretty dire due to the amount of wind affected targets. It would have been a stiff...

Fiocchi Fblack 8.5 plaswads are continental 8.5. Fblack fibres are UK 8. Both are 2.2mm. Fiocchi Litespeed are UK 8 in both Fibre and plastic. I'm assuming FBlack fibres, F3 fibres and Litespeeds are for the UK market only, hence UK sizing. Gamebore use both continental and UK sizing too...

Personally I'd be shooting the Fiocchi Fblack 8's for most things. Not just on price, they are an excellent cartridge. I'd also buy them somewhere else. My local gun shop sells Fblacks for £275. The only other one on that list I'd even consider are the Hull Pro One, and they're more £££. I'd...

I thought that was one one of the toughest shoots at AGL for a while. Looking at the classification scores, around 50% of shooters finished below their current classification band. Starting off with 5 sim pairs was a bit of a wake up call. Luckily there was two up before me, so I managed to...

IMO FBlus and FBlacks have got to be the best "bang for the buck". Any comparable cartridge from any other manufacturer is going to cost you at least £60 per thousand more.

Pretty sure that's not how a S1 certificate works. You are granted individual S1 "slots" for every calibre you have, and then can only have the amount of firearms that meet your FAC. Not like a SGC where you can have as many as you can securely store. FAC you need a good reason for possessing...

I normally shoot an O/U, but I also have A400 Xtreme with the kick off system. Cracking gun, hardly any felt recoil due to the kick off. Have shot sporting with it, but never skeet. I've never put anything smaller than 28g and 70mm length and, so far, never had a jam. A few others in my...

No matter whether its a club shoot, registered , or big comp, then I can imagine someone shooting Sportrap / Compak getting narked off if the person next to them is constantly pinging empty cartridges at them. On an sporting layout, then as long as you're not walking into a cage littered with...

Yep, 1/4 & 1/4 in both barrels on my DT11. Cylinder for anything close, or rabbits. Used to have a Browning XS, and I'd shoot 3/8 or Skeet. The DT seems to pattern a bit tighter than the Browning, so now using less choke. Shoot Fiocchi F3 Pistons 8.5 (UK 8) and FBlack 7.5 (UK 7). Different...

Stock bolt hex key, pin punch and a hammer.

Will H recommended these anti fog wipes to me, and they're pretty good: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08HHVWSSP/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1

Northampton for me today. As I thought a fortnight ago, this one was cranked up, and my pants got pulled down on a few. Came out of the gate quite well, only dropping 1 in the first 3 stands. Then stand 4 bit me. Didn't give the overhead enough lead, and dropped all 4. Couldn't find the full...

The last few shoots at ST would appear to have been on the really hard side and now attendance numbers are starting to show. Other nearby shoots with a 50% plus higher attendance. Looking at the scores for ST, nearly all shooters shot below the score band for their current classification. I'm...

Personally I'd be averse to purchasing a gunsmithing screwdriver set for the following reasons: 1) If it's got "gunsmithing" in the advertising, then it's going to attach a markup to suit. 2) It's unlikely to contain all the 1/4" hex drive bits you need, so you're going to end up buying more, or...
