    Shooting girlfriend wanted

    It’s a kind offer but I have found myself a girlfriend who shoots. I’m not naming her but shall we just say she is a retired shooter of repute for a specific clay discipline and we are very happy together. Long May it continue and hopefully I will beat her at Sporting one day!

    Playing with an idea….

    The space I have an offer on is a sub let of part of an existing building, nothing like the size of JC who I feel could operate from a much smaller space if they used suitable racking etc - all their stuff is at ground level or 1 tier racking only. I’m looking at direct import from the...

    Playing with an idea….

    So what is your profit margin on clay cartridges on average? 12%? 8.5%? A lot will have to do with overheads, JC have a basic warehouse in rural Oxfordshire that no doubt will be cheap to rent. They have a cash and carry counter and that’s it. Nothing fancy, but it works well. If I go ahead...

    Playing with an idea….

    just because a brand has an existing importer, doesn’t mean they aren’t open to an approach. My next task is to list all the cartridge manufacturers to approach and read the ER2014

    Playing with an idea….

    I have for some time been looking at the prices of cartridges and comparing the UK to Europe and the variations between outlets in the UK for the same cartridge. I have also been considering starting a cartridges sales company. Some warehouse space has been offered by a friend, banking...

    Oxford Gun Company Issue

    It appears to me that the OP had the gun in storage with OGC at a cost of just over £6 a week plus VAT. Gun was in storage for a year. OP then instructs OGC to sell the gun. It appears that the gun was sold for £1,200 and the OP was charged £300 commission on the sale. As the gun had been in...

    Cartridge price increases now getting silly

    I would urge everyone in Essex/`east Anglia to look at Clarkes of Walsham for cartridges. Some very good pricing and you can collect them from their outlet at Jimmy’s Farm or their main office near Bury st Edmonds. I bought several thousand cartridge’s from them last year and the saving paid for...

    Oxford Gun Company Issue

    I know this ground and the Florent family, shoot there quite a bit. Have bought plenty of stuff from their shop but never a gun. I gave them my 682 Gold E for them to sell on commission a year or so ago. OGC guaranteed me a set sum when they had sold out and put that to me in writing. They had...

    Try before you buy

    The 694 is a superb gun. You won’t go far wrong with it.

    English Sporting 42p & up

    Churchill’s do 35p a clay after 5pm on a Thursday evening in the summer, I live and work close by so can get there quickly and get a solid 150 clays in at a reasonable price. Am a regular at OGC. I shot at Edge Hill on the way back from seeing my elderly Mum over Xmas. 36p a clay and great...

    Edge Hill SG, Banbury

    Shot at this ground for the first time yesterday morning. They are open 3 days a week plus BH’s but are open all this week. Hard standing car park and driveway from the road, good targets, traps are maintained and work without spitting out dozens of no birds. 2 Skeet rings, ABT/trap layout...

    Shooting girlfriend wanted

    Aged 40-55, clay mostly but I also shoot rifle. I’m based along the M40 between London and Oxford, looking for a suitable lady ideally within 50 miles. Don’t be shy ladies. 😀

    Trap Shooters

    Without doubt ESP is the most popular discipline thanks to the variety of targets. I find DTL very boring. Want to have a go at ABT and Helice but it’s a question of finding a ground and someone to show me how to shoot it.    Brooks Bank near Cheddar does DTL and Skeet and I think one of their...
