I’ve shot the titanium 28g 7.5s. I shot them alongside some superbs 28g 7.5s and my usual Olympic blues 28g 8s. To me there was no noticeable difference between the titanium and my blues (apart from the ridiculous price) but the superbs were excellent, really smooth. A lovely cartridge to...

I shot it Tuesday and enjoyed it. 82 Black 85 red. Was 3 away after the first six on black the the red on stand seven didn’t see a hit on the long battue so walked off that stand with a 5 when it should have been a 6. Lost my head and dropped a further 4 on the next stand. Killed my card but...

Have you measured the two stocks to see what the actual difference is?

Some manufacturers have two or three stock options for their different models. I know blaser has three for the f3 so browning may be similar and the two gun might very well have different stock dimensions. 

Was that the red on stand 4? What a tit he was. 

Orvis long sleeve casting shirts but the are not cheap or ASOS muscle fit long sleeved t shirts 3 for £20 are brilliant too. 

I made the trip to AGL. Enjoyed the round. Started just before 10. Took 5hrs. Lots of people moaning about waits and weather. I had thermals and an umbrella so was pretty comfortable. Some people dressed for summer faired less well. Missed two overheads on 8 and my last pair on 12 which annoyed...

I hit the last one of the battues on 4. One one of the 3 I got wrong. The others were the crosser on stand 3, reckon I was just in front of the first one then kept giving it more, and the quick quartering crosser thing on stand 8 I think. 

I shot highwaymans Sunday for the premier League. Misread 3 targets that’s cost me 11clays in 3 stands. Finished on a semi reasonable 74.  Then shot eriswell. A closer more fiddley course. Got jumped by 3 rabbits and missed a complete pair in the middle of stand 10. Otherwise shot it well...

I shot them side by side with some hull pro ones on Sunday and could not feel any difference recoil wise. Or in any other way to be honest. 

My blaser stock is 35/50 and I was told at a gun fit session at Holland and Holland it was too high. Put it on a pattern plate and was 50:50 at 30yards. I’ll keep it as it is thanks. 

A brilliant cartridge. Olympic blue 8’s is all I use for clays. 

Get one. You won’t be disappointed. The f3 pro is a great gun. I use mine for all my shooting except walked up game. 

Jim Spaulding has a workshop at the fennes shooting ground. He has done loads of my friends stock work.  I hope he’s not retiring I need some work done on my blaser. 

When I moved I phoned Essex up they said phone Suffolk once you’ve moved. So I did they sent a bloke round to check my cabinet in my new house and sent my new licence through the post.
