    Shot size and weight

    Using a lot of 8's at the mo and some official sporting 8.5... got them in a job lot. They break clays very well at some distance. Have some 6's in the bag also at the mo. But when the job lot is exhausted , or some more come along, then its back to fblu,english 7's at everything. Jasper

    Shot size and weight

    Maybe ground specific. For fallout reasons.? This is the actual rule. But how many times have you been checked? 🤣😂😉🤔 Jasper.

    Try before you buy

    Pretty sure Ian Coleys would have both that you could try. They have a comprehensive sporting layout on claymate.  My friend has purchased a couple of guns from them and he is happy .  Jasper.

    Cartridge price increases now getting silly

    Shoot touch on the tough side for most mortals I think. Monster pair of fast sim battues at "65yards" tested most folk...hit 4ex8. Trying out stuff for the British I suspect. I'm not shooting well either which doesn't help. One stand of driven had a crossbar (padded) at the front of the cage...

    Cartridge price increases now getting silly

    Tt1 were £260 ,fblu£270,fblack£274 at garlands yesterday.  The fiocchi price list is only valid for the next 3 months. I doubt they'll come down in price.  Jasper.

    Cartridge price increases now getting silly

    Just picked up my gun(service) from a local,  ground . Which is very nice , Open for practice and lessons, Nice gun room. Nice clubhouse.  (think range rover set) And it's absolutely dead. No practice going on. No-one on lessons. In fact no shots fired at all whilst I was there. As a...

    Baschieri & Pellagri

    I've shot around a 1000 of them through a dt11.  To me they are a touch heavy on recoil. The Mrs didn't like them at all recoil wise and he doesn't usually notice any difference cartridge to cartridge.   BUT ,the kills are the best I've ever seen in 30+ years. Simply devastating.  They look...

    Cartridges , value for money versus cost

    Following the recent price hikes , there is no such thing as a cheap fiocchi. And I'm a fan.  Had a chat with a gun room last week. Fiocchi are apparently  a nightmare to do buisness with at the moment. And Don't have what he wants.  Shot the super sporting at Westfield today. Used some eley...

    How things have changed on here.

    Well if the motion to change the articles is better explained to the members(me) then I'll just vote NO. And it can stay as is. Simples.  Jasper.

    How things have changed on here.

    So would not a comprehensive  explanation be more favourable,  to allow members to make an informed decision.  Maybe more would be inclined  to vote. Or is there more to this than meets the eye.  Jasper

    How things have changed on here.

    So you know there's a vote to change the articles  ???  How well has that proposal been explained to you??? I always receive good service from the staff etc. But that's not the same as engaging the membership.  Jasper.

    The steel thing

    Just cartridges have fblu and tt1 both at £283. Monumental  f**k up by someone.  So cheap club shell or very good comp cartridge with 5% antimony at the same price.  You choose. 🤣 Jasper.

    Shame she's not still here. She was/is a direct link to cpsa. Which needs to engage the membership more.  Jasper.

    The steel thing

    This. By the prices I paid last time would put fblus at around £260.  Jasper.

    Cartridges , value for money versus cost

    It's so they can bang out millions of em without changing any machines etc. And buy or make one lot of components  by the trillion. Keeps the price down. Just don't  mention the super hard 5% antimony shot. 🤫 Jasper.  But yes fblu 8.5. Sign me up.

    Sporting shoots 2023. How was it?

    Makes me laugh, the bit about " for further info and rules". It's a cpsa shoot. Therefore it's cpsa rules . Not any you care to make up.  Simples. Also interested  to know if its book on or turn up.  Jasper.

    Cartridges , value for money versus cost

    Well I'm AA and aside from a few job lots of bin ends I've shot fblus for 5 + years .  I shoot around 4000 reg targets in a year with approx 87% average. So not too much wrong with that.  In the bin ends there have been some sovereigns which are fab , but mega money. Also some basherie  and...
