Bloody great shell.  Like any shells, keep them nice and warm (mine go in the airing cupboard much to the chagrin of my darling wife), and they will be clean and hard hitting.

I remember that thread now.  Great patterns those by the way.  The Sovereign is a naturally tight patterning shell.  A notably top shot I know who patterned them said that you shouldn't go past half with a Sovereign (in his krieghoff).  I have shot them in my perazzi and the breaks have been...

Measured choke bore diameter with a Digital micrometer.  Not exact I know however thats all I had to hand.  I'll see if I can grab a bore guage from work.  Difference is between diameter of bore (Given at 18.7mm /0.736") vs the measured diameter of the choke.

Measured using a digital micro meter at the choke end. Then subtracting the difference from barrel diameter.  A friend of mine shoots a DT11. The breaks he gets waaaaay out with half choke and 8s are staggering.  It's all about how the gun patterns. I'll happily shoot the 3/4 (3/8th) choke at...

You have a point.  But now I know that its less than half choke.........my heads not in it.  I'm going to pattern it at Sporting Targets in a weeks time with the Half, 3/4, LFull and Full chokes with the same shell at 35m. If I get a dense pattern with them, I'll be fine.  If its wide open...

So then, I've been shooting a Browning 725 Pro-Trap.......rather well of late.  But the engineer came out and I measured the choke restrictions of what came with the gun.  Measured vs barrel diameter we find the following Skeet = 0.738" = TrueCylinder 1/4 Improved Cyl = 0.004" or Light Skeet...

Afternoon Chesterse.  Many thanks for your kind offer.  I'll have to politely decline the offer I'm afraid.  Changing to aftermarket chokes opens me up to a whole world of more purchases and whilst not currently divorced, I fear another big purchase may upset the apple cart!  😄 I can just about...

As the Title suggests.  I want a Browning Invector DS Half Choke to fit my Browning Pro-Trap. Cheers!

Ryan Sperling.  He's my coach.  He looks at your style and can tell where, and how you miss.  He will adjust the smallest thing and turn it into Breaks.  He has the ability to be able to shoot (Hes in the top 20 ESP shots in the UK), and teach youngsters, New shooters, Experienced and those who...

Great gun that.  Enjoy it!  I've just bought a Pro-Trap.......and it patterns great.......and I'm shooting better with it than the Perazzi.........Hmmmmm

Well done. Great gun that patterns awesome with the standard chokes.

So then. Shot 2 comps at the weekend with the 'New Gun'.  Shot a mix of 8s and 7.5.s.  Mind is completely made up now.  Its the 7.s.  They bust an edgy 60yd crosser with aplomb.   The 8s didn't quite have the same impact.  On long trap birds and the big teals, the 7.5s were king.  Due in no...

I have an MX12.  Beautiful gun. But like all guns they need to fit.  Certainly the Perazzi is a far better built gun (IMO) than a Browning or a Beretta or a Krieghoff.  Triggers are (just) about the best in the business.  The MX8 is better still.  But the 12 has more wood around the action as...

Eley now have Bio degradeable wads that look like plaswads.

Then get rid of Archery too.  As well as all knives.  We'll peel potatoes with our fingernails.  They'll have to get rid of all man made chemicals too.  That can be made into bombs and poison.  A bloke called Abba Kovner, a persecuted Jew in WW2 set about a plan to kill 2 million germans in an...

.....and does that Allen Key unhinge and un-twist engineers who like to take things apart and cut things open?

Thanks.  That means I'll have to pay full price elsewhere then.  Hey Ho!  

ELEY GUNSLIP!!!!!!! I shoot ELEY!!!!!!!!  I'll have to get one!  Where did you pick that up?

Aye. With a mop, a tea towel, a Hoover and a garden rake.

She'd like that.  She'd shoot me with it.
