Might try these on my car windows as well ;)

This is true, but from experience I would advise the more time consuming route of manual filing, sanding and polishing. Using a machine grinder you will quickly create sufficient heat to mess with the (usually surface-)hardness of the bit, resulting in a bit that is too soft.

I am not so sure about the longevity of the bits by Wheeler, but the kits are nice and complete. Guns often seem to require non-standard bits, especially flatheads in odd sizes. Having a wide selection of bits and using the right one will help avoid scratches and marring or even chewing up slots...

The best thing would be to go out for a day's shooting with someone who has several lenses and lets you try them on. At ehm, middle-age, I certainly profit from a few lenses that make the clays stand out against the backdrop. For me, that works with a brown to purple lens on orange clays, and...

I think both the barrel stickers in the e-store are for OU's, despite the orange one lacking that description. Admittedly, this is based on my perception that the SxS crowd isn't as keen to display brand advertising on their traditional heirlooms 😉

I will leave it to Bavarian to elaborate on the German rules, but in the Netherlands (next door to Germany and similar in licensing requirements, if stricter) you either need a firearms permission or a hunting permit. The latter requires nearly a year of classes, as well as live shotgun and...

If you end up in Spain, I cannot recommend de 'Club de Tiro Jarapalo' enough. (See: https://jarapalo.com/ ) Close to Malaga, maybe a tad closer to Torremolinos still. Good way to combine beachfront and still get your fill of shooting overlooking the landscape down from the mountains to the sea...

Frankly I was wondering the same thing - I once asked whether a 692 and 694 stock were interchangeable and if memory serves the answer was "no". I'll have a closer look when my mate brings his 694 over, although that may be a while.

Have you tried the search option? This came up in "similar threads" below and seems to have your answer right there: https://www.shootclayforum.com/threads/beretta-684-stock-vs-680-stock.69392/

"fraudulence", "mercenaries", "unworthy mercantile attacks". Surely there is some cultural difference at play but isn't someone forgetting that this is a sport and game we supposedly all enjoy? Sounds to me as though someone is in fear of losing a cushy (paid?) position with a lavish title.

Out of curiosity - Is that legal in the UK? At my end of the channel a certificate can be (and in several cases I know of was) revoked for leaving munitions unattended. It has to be kept in a safe, or has to be in the shooters personal possession. If in a bag prior / after shooting where the...

There's something to be said about repeated attempts. Even a blind squirrel finds nuts ;). The trick is remembering what the difference in lead was between the hits and the misses.

Welcoming a Trojan.... :unsure:. But hey, welcome aboard.

Various reactions to the same question sum it up nicely. Wonko was especially eloquent in 2021, #32.

Curious as to how you'll get on and whether a modern O/U will appeal at all, and if not what SxS will take to your heart.

My mental health is not in any way in peril. I would say that having a hobby and sport that gets me outdoors, seeing friends, competing, having a laugh and generally enjoying myself (and others, hopefully) is one more thing to be happy about.

Another thing that will have changed is the number of options in the world over O/U's. Even in twenty-bore (a lot less common) there's a world to explore. Have a look on Guntrader, select 20 bore, O/U (or side by side) and the world is your oyster. Brands I'd look at given what I know or have...

How would you use this in a way that's useful for shooting clay targets? I have only used a laser cartridge in the past for quick check to point of aim as compared to what you see over the rib and bead. The alignment issue explained by @Freddypip makes it a hassle (i rotated the cartridge a few...

I have one, but have yet to pattern it. Unfortunately my home range only rarely allows patterning boards to be put up. I bought it out of curiosity really, wondering if it would improve the pattern for very short shots while still being 'dense' enough for shots on clays out to say twenty yards...

We are only allowed to shoot mockingbirds, íf dressed in full Union Jack attire and only when in season.
