Or maybe want the protection and possible optical benefits without spending thick end of a thousand quid ?

Very happy so far. Not been out much , but enjoying it when I do….

Sorry if this has been asked before, but can somebody explain to me where the cost/value/benefit is in Pilla specs? £800 plus for some small bits of injection moulded plastic ? I don’t understand….

Except he didn’t like them shiny…..

I saw a vid recently by Premier gun with a custom 694, they had Optima HP chokes in that , but they had had them DLC coated black…. Might be worth a phone to call to them to see if they help.

Picked up my new 694 today, did a round of 100 birds whilst I was there.... Very happy so far, never shot 32" before, but didnt feel like they were ponderous at all. Nice and smooth to shoot, and a half decent bit of wood to boot.

Sporting here, quite like the Eley Select but do want want to try Hull COmpX , both 7.5 Just shot a slab of Gamebore evo 8 and a little more punchy then Eley

Ok, so I spent a good couple of hours at EJC- which I still think of as one of the premier grounds in the UK… The guys in the gun room were very helpful, friendly and not remotely snobby…. Took a 30” 694 out with their senior instructor, which was both informative and fun. I enjoyed the whole...

Thanks Daz, what I suspected.

Anyone use the switch, or swapped from passive to switch ? Interested to know the useage and effectiveness. Thanks

Enjoyed it . It’s a nice ground, surprised me how busy it was for a Thursday. Spent a good while chatting with Tom. Ended up just taking the 694 out . They had a 687EELL but it had just come back from Beretta having had new wood fitted and they were reluctant to let me take that out. Not...

Off to Barbury in the morning and looking forward to it. Slightly disappointing that I have still not heard anything from AGL tho…..

Was that prescription lens as well?

I mentioned ballistic as I wasn’t sure what other word I needed. Just looking for protection for clay frags as mentioned above.

Back when I was shooting regularly, I’d see the “big names”’at local registered shoots.. George Digweed was the master of Southdown High tower. Back then, they were the likes of Mickey Rouse, Carl Bloxham, Arnie Palmer…. I know Richard Faulds and his son(?) are doing well, any of those old...

I know the EELL is an aesthetic upgrade rather than a modern upgrade, its just a gun Ive lusted over for a while....plus Ive been shooting a Silver Pig for years, so it should feel natural.... I had a bad experience with a new B425 years ago and thats put me off Browning, but the XS does...

Thanks, I really want to try a few guns at the same venue, so a ground makes more sense. My local shop, R&K will let me take and try if required. I think Im down to about 3 guns now. 687EELL 694 DT10 possibly Browning Ultra XS Pro for interest Maybe a Guerini, I dont know. I think Im a...

Haha, yes, I am well aware EJC is a “premium” offering, but it’s only just over an hour from me, and a delight to shoot…. Coley is nearly 2 hours and Barbury about 1.45

A valid point well made…. Tbf, I was a member of Broomhills and bought my Silver Pig from them…

Thanks all. I should mention that I have emailed all the grounds above, and have replies from all except AGL, which is my nearest, but I guess they don’t want my money….. Im thinking Churchills and Barbury based on their responses…
