    Mercury Hearing

    I was fitted for a set of passive ones at the Essex Masters. Waiting for them to arrive as yet, but as Ed says, the moulding process was simple and painless and the young lady that I was dealing with, was very knowledgeable and pleasant.

    Shootclay Simulated Shoot

    Does include cartridges though. You could easily shoot 4/500, at say £100. So now you are up at £295....just saying.

    Sending a Shotgun Action to Italy

    I would be inclined to ask them, exactly how massive your discount will be for providing them with a donor action, from which they will be able to produce many more miroku grips. Tell them to source an action.

    So "No", then. Looks nice.

    Essex Masters

    Shot this with Sibaldib, Tuesday and Wednesday. Props to him for driving me up there and outshooting me too! I shot better than last year, but not as well as the previous year and definitely underestimated where I was! Good shoot, as usual though. First two stands of black course, I could...

    Had its day?

    Of course you mean what you said, no issue there and we kind of see your point too. :) I was implying that you probably didn't intend for it to come across as kicking Matt in the bollocks, by suggesting that as this part of the Forum no longer teaches YOU anything new, then it should be...

    Had its day?

    Bit like a marriage really, isn't it? It's all new and exciting to begin with, then you kinda settle into the daily grind, good and bad. But hopefully, you appreciate it for more than just the "exciting" bits. I feel pretty confident, that you did not intend your comment to come across as it...

    Steel pro's & con's

    http://www.clay-shooting.com/news/club-chief-vows-to-strip-off-to-prove-steel-point/ So, the reality is: if you are using modern steel shot, it won't score your barrels as the shot is contained in the shot cup. It isn't steel BB, like you might imagine...it is soft iron. I have shot many...

    Pre-mounting

    I think that many of those targets at Horne, are missed by leaving them too late.  By allowing them to come in too close, you have reduced your pattern and have to allow for the target dropping.

    Pre-mounting

    I would only usually pre-mount, for something quick away, double rise etc. However, my gun down will vary from, below the region of a FITASC line, to only just out of my shoulder, depending on how long I have. If you mount too soon and are waiting for the clay, you may find yourself...

    Shooting rabbits and foxes on my own property.

    So to clarify.... You may shoot on private land where you have a right to be. None of the shot may leave the boundaries of said land. It is an offence to discharge a firearm within 50ft of the centre of 'The Queens Highway" (middle of a road). Safe and legal are two totally different things...

    Reading breaks

    I always shoot low on rabbits...which is why I used to miss those sneaky, slightly uphill ones at Gatton Bottom. Took me a while to suss what I was doing wrong...the shame :(

    Reading breaks

    Yeah, that's why they shoot Sporting! I hear FITASC shooters can even choose which part of the shot cloud they use :)

    That link is direct to Beretta in Italy. The "E-Store" is brilliant, decent prices and you usually get what you ordered the next day.

    Shooting on your own

    Hi. You might also look for clubs that shoot English Skeet.  Always a good place to learn basic skills and is shot in small groups, so buddies/buttoner no problem.

    Need help making a decision.

    Two very different 'types' of gun there. I am biased towards Beretta, but I do like the Miroku's. Get what suits you, as was said...Then make it fit
