Gamebore cartridges are available in Australia cheaper than I can buy them here: Gamebore White Gold 12Ga 28Gram #8 Qty 250 Slab | Holts Gun Shop  140 AUD per slab is £75 

Their website clayandcountry.com is now stating all shoots are CPSA registered

How did you get on with the 52yd bunny on stand 6? Managed 2 out of 4, I think the rest of my squad had 2 between them!!

Cleaned after every shoot -  barrels, chokes and action (external) and woodwork.  Yearly (or sooner if needed) - action off, firing pins out, etc.  Drilled into me during my apprenticeship - never put away dirty tools.

Surely be easier to swap from the XS BL to a 525SL with the schnabel forend? I know it's not a London style, but it's a lot thinner than the trap forend. Having the forend of the XS BL reworked will likely kill its resale value.  The stock balance weights available to fit the XS BL will fit in...

Storing shotgun cartridges in a safe would be bonkers. Shotgun cartridges need the chamber of the gun to contain/direct the propulsive force when fired, unlike metallic ammunition, which must be stored at home in a safe.  An uncontained shotgun cartridge in a fire will go bang with minimal...

Haha. Ain't nobody giving away 5000 Dark Storms at current prices!!!!!

Using some Gamebore White Golds  today that I purchased early last year. One of the cartridges in the middle of the box was blue. Not even a blue that I recall Gamebore ever producing. Spent the last 2 stands at Redricks wondering how a blue shell got in the box. Bizarre.

Granted, changing prescription with disposable contacts is a very cheap option. Biggest drawback with disposable contacts is that they are only manufactured in a limited amount of prescriptions, so the lenses you'll end up getting are what's the closest available to what you actually need. If...

AGL today. They cranked that one up a bit! A lot of people had their pants pulled down I fear. 128 entries, which is a large turn out. Wetter than forecast as well. Cheery start 🙂 4 stands gave me a good seeing to: Stand 2 on the platform - stupid mistakes, wrong hold point, shot in front...

I've just read this: https://sportingshooter.co.uk/article/cartridge-review-fiocchi-f-black It would appear the FBlack is a harder recoiling FBlu, and was designed to help cycling a semi auto. Makes me wonder why Fiocchi only do FBlu in 7.5 plaswad, when FBlack is available in 8.5 & 7.5...

Need to book it. First few are filling up already

We did. Unfortunately you can only help those who are interested in what they're doing. 

Redricks for me too. Really enjoyable round I thought. Great refs, no trap breakdowns and not a single no bird, which was the polar opposite from my previous week at Northampton. Got round in 1h 45m, which has got to be a record. Glad it's still squadded, as it stops the inevitable queuing that...

Young lad (late teens?) Going to go with a hard no for CPSA qualified ref. Seemed to be a few there this week.

You're not the only one, I could hit that green one either. Totally misread it.  The R-L on 7 I only managed to hit once also. One chap on our squad kept hitting it, then missing the report crosser!! We had a numpty ref as well, which didn't help. Launching clays that you hadn't called for...

Will, if you're at Oxford next week, I'll dig some FBlu (28/7.5), FBlack (28/8.5), F3 Pistons (28/8.5) & some Super Blacks (28/7.5) out of my leftover cartridges box for you to have a play with. I've been trying quite a few of the Fiocchi range, and I can honestly say the only ones I don't...

Dropped pair?

As many have already mentioned, stopping the gun isn't necessarily a problem if it's done at the right time and for the right reason.  Most instructors will emphasise the importance of the swing on to a beginner, as they can often switch focus from the clay to the barrels when applying lead, and...

If I recall correctly, they did change the design a few years ago. Older version had one shoulder strap. Newer one has 2, so you can wear it like a rucksack. I carry mine round mostly by the handle and have no issues, but If carrying it around is going to be an issue, then I have seen them...
