I looked it up. We can't go smaller than 24 gauge, apparently and that's on hunting permits only. On the claygrounds I don't think I've seen anyone shoot 24 gauge, and finding steel shot for it would be hard indeed from a quick glance on the web. Our rules are stricter for what's allowed under a...

We tend not to shoot at concrete, really. In terms of grounds lay-out and risk assesment, there is not much difference to lead than steel. Angles of possible (mis-)fire are accounted for, shot sizes on courses are limited to 'not bigger than 6' in most places, and it is obviously critical to not...

While I enjoy reading the back-and-forth, I'd prefer to see the proposed shooting match. No offense to Pete, but I'd be willing to stake Ben in the side bet. Others are welcome to chip in. On the admittedly slim chance that you'll both visit the Netherlands simultaneously, I would also offer...

Among how many hunters and clay enthusiasts in the UK is that 375M GBP divided? Seems a stiff bill to foot per shooter. Class action claim could stand a chance, if your associations could initiate such steps. In NL we can only shoot steel and have done so for years with no ill effects to...

Indeed or near to. As the surfaces are flat it's not difficult to sand them down to flush and then refinish. I don't think many people bother, or just keep them fit for DT11 use with re-sale in mind. I'd want to 'finish' the protruding edge with oil or similar against moisture seeping in, but...

Just though of another: - I would not have bought as many vests, but gone straight for one "to measure / specifically sized" vest for dry conditions and a jacket-type vest for wet. Don't ask me how many I have. While it's good to give one away to a starter on occasion, I still have several...

Came to say what @Westward and @Freddypip have said more eloquently. I don't always agree with Ben's posts and his replies can at times be terse, but he is certainly among the most (the most, I'd think) experienced shots here with accolades untold.

Altering length is a piece of cake, and its is easy to note the settings. Same for pitch of the pad. While adjusting the comb is also easy, you can't really tell what position it is in without taking it off, as there are markings for the pillars but they are obscured with the comb in place. Also...

Rather than comment on youtube itself, I'll post my thoughts here. I love my Ergosign stocks (I have two in identical set-up for two different guns). I bought the first one by the time I knew what purposes could be served by changing settings, and with some initial tinkering and adjusting on the...

I think regret doesn't serve anyone well after the facts, which is when it usually arrives. That said, if I had to do it again, I: - would not have spent hard earned Euros on external chokes before finding out internal ones worked out better (for reasons of barrel length to me) - would still...

Can't find a word about it from Beretta themselves. Tempted to e-mail their CS and ask, but at the same time I look forward to a sale of all parts and accessories DT11 in their e-store.

Hi Rob, I can't sell you the Ergosign stock itself as I use it fondly, but in regular configuration. If you find a DT11 Ergosign stock in 'normal' configuration (I believe there is one on guntrader * still) I'll be happy to trade you the "trappy bits" mine came with as extra: a higher bridge...

Thanks Pete - with autumn approaching fast here, Dallas sounds like a much better place to break clays. I'd be interested in the e-book. Will drop you a line as per your post on skeet above.

While I appreciate any offer of tuition, especially free, I am confused. Here you say: "Email me here", whereas in an earlier post you state: Are you "the author" of 'You're behind it'? I'd like to know more. Maybe an e-book or pdf can be made available?

Have they? Shotgunworld can't offer a source and their seems to be confusion on whether or not it is a rumour originating from all steel (as in, no carbon) black version DT11's. Here's the link : Rumour on DT11 Black I doubt they would stop making them: They seem popular. I could just be...

To the point of a ref adding up scores to 102 in a 100 bird match :) He was quick to correct that off course.

Just a quick shout to praise Derek Lee - they shipped an s/h Ergosign stock out to me which arrived (if somewhat late, thanks to Dutch customs) in perfect order and with all the bits as advertised. I have since put it on my DT11 and took it to the finals of the Dutch skeet nationals, placing...

The DT11 comes with a box of spares, that in my case included 2 firing pins, 2 firing pin springs, two leaf springs for the trigger unit and a few beads. I haven't broken anything (yet) but almost lost the screw for the adjustable trigger once on its predecessor. Worth a drop of loctite, or even...

I can confirm the "no issues" part (so far) as owner of a DT11 Black Edition. Haven't shot heaps with it yet, as I just put my 692 Black edition aside. I have probably shot a couple thousand now without incident, and I am not the first owner. I shoot about 200-ish cartridges a week on average...

Just looked it up. Looks the part, but at 1500 Euro you can order one straight from Beretta*, which is probably your best bet if you are in a hurry. Haven't seen one come by on guntrader I think, and I've had DT11 stocks on autosearch for quite a while. I eventually found and bought a DT11...
