Shot the English Open at Doveridge today, it was my first competition event of this kind outside of the standard registered shoots. I’m a C class shooter with an average of 60%, so I was happy to walk away with an 83. Targets were fun, I enjoyed the driven stand where I hit 7 and the final...

Be nice to see it with the refurbished wood, quite a good project gun.

I have one, 3/8 super extended titanium available.

Swatcom Active 8 Ear Defenders (Black) Purchased new in June 2023, used a handful of times. Still in what I would describe as like new condition. Im selling due to preferring in-ear type defenders. These have been kept clean and dry indoors and havent seen any wet weather. No damage to ear...

sounds like the guns were either too low or too high for you so you compensated by moving your head back thus stretching your arms. I would suggest an adjustable stock or a gun fit. Cant enjoy it, if you're in pain.

im 6.2 and shoot a 30 inch MK38 with an adjustable comb, i was pushed to buy a 32 at the point of sale but preferred the sight picture on the 30. Its a 9Ib gun, so i wanted to shed a little weight where i could. I like the compact nature of the 30 and will on occasion try a friends 32 on the odd...

Is the malfunctions part for No Bird recording on stands?

I do prefer extended chokes mainly for the barrel protection, it’s also easier to tighten. I tried some ported chokes, needless to say after shooting one round of sporting the filth all over the barrel end and front bead made the decisions to sell them easier.

I do find some peoples pre shot routine a bit irritating, especially when it takes them 3 or so minutes of faffing between each pair to get ready. It adds up across 12-13 stands and I feel you should be told to hurry up or docked clays. Or the ones who fiddle with their cartridge orientation as...

Whilst trying not to sound abrasive, your reply isn't anything to do with what I have asked. Im not fussed on your mount picture, or the number of carts put through your shotgun. I asked what brands have tramlines on the top rib. A common theme on the forum is threads moving out of what the op...

Probably means inch perfect as in accurate and repeatable.

It maybe that the others I have tried have no mid bead, which is causing the 'not sure if it's in the right place' quandary.

I own a Mk38 Sporter which has tramlines that run down the top rib, which i find helps with gun mount and making sure im centred along with the mid bead of course. What other manufactures use tramlines on their top ribs, as I'm struggling to find alternatives?

In an interview with George Digweed and Anthony Matarese, they discussed chokes. George mentioned it can be beneficial for newcomers to the sport to shoot full choke to improve accuracy during practice and training. Then opening it up a bit in comps to get a buffer, which makes rudimentary...

what day you booked in on? Im there Friday morning.

Im doing the Pro One challenge instead at Barbury, which was £70 for 120 birds.

£83 for 120 is a massive rip off, swallowable for a 200 birder.

I can’t offer much advice on which gun to buy but I can help with Premier Guns. I would say there gun buying service is quite poor. Very unprofessional, not very initiative driven when browsing and considering they are based on a clay ground they don’t even watch and offer advice when gun...

Were you in a 0900 squad? As i may of pinched your space. I have had an in week so some fresh air will do me good. Low expectations for tomorrow shooting wise but hoping it’s dry.

Good insight and i can now see why most places stock a wide range of Fiocchi/Express range. Rarely do you get Hull and Gamebore on offer. My local has a good range of Fiocchi and will order in B&P at request. Good to understand some of the nuance behind it.
