I thought you would 'glow' :) DT

So here are the conditions I and three other squads had to shoot their 4th line at the Worlds in Megeve. what the video doesn't show is the thunder & lightning that was going on while we were shooting. DT

Ego is good enough for me.  DT

Me! Yes, Charlie, I did spend time with a great bunch of people, meeting new friends and catching up with some old acquaintances. Spending quality time with Harry is always enjoyable as well. But we all attend these events hoping we are able to shoot well and therefore be competitive. This was...

Been having this very conversation with members of the UT tech comm this week. Don't expect any change soon  :rolleyes: DT

Crashed and burned spectacularly on the last day. 'Gutted' doesn't begin to tell you how I feel.  :( I hate this f***ing sport  :angry: DT

A decent 5 for me, considering I've been out of the country all week and not a paper or seen the news :) argh the power of guesswork DT

Can't say I disagree with the comment about the suitability of the ground to hold the worlds but it very beautiful. The white targets really stand out and of course do not contaminate the hillside with a sea of orange. Megeve is also very beautiful but cor blimey, its expensive to eat and...

Bonjour to you all.  The layouts are enclosed to keep the sound in. The ground has previously had problems with noise so they have enclosed them as much as possible and fillled them with acoustic absorbing materials. Also keeps the cattle out :) The ground is perched on the side of a hill...

Afraid not. Just managed to find someone who had bought one but it didn't fit his high rib gun :)   no idea why Castellani has stopped making them, nor why they made them to fit flat rib guns only? I know loads of peeps that wanted one but didn't buy because they didn't fit their gun. Talk...

You are obviously made of sterner stuff than me Phil ! but you knew that already :) DT

I have only 1 ambition for this year, and next year. And that is to get my two years as UT rep out of the bloody way. Then I can start concentrating on my shooting again!!  Mutley, I shall never forgive you for talking me into it   :angry: DT

Alas my luck was not carried forward to today :( shot like a tw*t  :angry:

All sorted :)

In their infinite wisdom Castelani have stopped manufacturing/supplying their lightweight gun sock (see picky below). As I left mine in the car park at Lonato I am looking for a new one but all the usual suspects are out of stock. Therefore if anyone has a spare one (new or nearly new) and are...

Five, and all guesses!! :)   Think I might go shooting on Sunday as I'm feeling lucky DT

I tried some F3's at the weekend (thanks Nicola). Must say they were a bit 'punchy' compared to the Eley Superbs I was using, which surprised me slightly. My experience with F Blacks was always good (soft) but patterns are just to tight when shot through 3/4 and full.  DT

A World Sporting 3 ex 6 for me. I thought one of the questions was too hard so I removed it  :) DT

Gotta make sure the patterns the right way up :)   I am a cartridge twiddler I'm afraid. Just part of the routine these days.  The anxiety when I don't twiddle is too much to bear!! DT

Had exactly this situation myself down at Brook Bank recently. Previous shooter to me took ages to let off his second shot and I was invariably lifting/closing my gun as the second shot went off. Doh! In the end I started looking/checking below my left blinder to see his barrels touch the floor...
