Is anywhere streaming the Olympic shooting events free? I've managed to watch the skeet finals on a Discovery+ trial, but won't be able see the trap events later in the week without subscribing. I can't see it on the BBC schedule, unless I'm missing something? I assume the BBC don't care as...

Thanks. I thought as much, just wanted to double check.

This may sound a daft question, but I have a Winchester with Invector Plus chokes. Will any Invector Plus chokes fit, or do I need to get chokes specifically for Winchester guns?

Wow. That's way cheaper than I thought he would be. I have been contemplating some lessons with a local coach who is at a higher hourly rate. I may have to reconsider.

A great sportsman doesn't necessarily make a good coach, but it also doesn't necessarily make them a bad one either. What about Johan Cruyff, Kenny Dalglish or Franz Beckenbauer? All three had great careers as players and coaches, winning plenty of silverware in both roles. If you look at solo...

Ultimately it's down to the FEO's judgement.  I have a 6" gap underneath my cabinet due to pipes running underneath it. But the space around the cabinet isn't sufficient for a pry bar of any significant length to be used on it.

Can anyone recommend a decent glasses and lense set for £150 or under?  I shoot all year round so being able to change lenses to different light levels is fairly important, but a single lense pair that I can purchase additional (and reasonably priced) lenses may work. Unfortunately I cannot...

I thought everyone moved away from coal tar pitch years ago?

This was posted on Pigeon Watch by the BASC rep on 30th September - " Following lockdowns in March, most police forces were unable to accept first-time grant applications and variations due to the impact of COVID-19 on officer and staff functions. However, most police forces continued to...

Filling a pair of the missus' tights with kitty litter (remove the missus first) does the job just as well. Running leaky classic cars taught me that trick.

Having only started the sport 18months or so ago, I cannot say what it was like before. But I see large numbers at the grounds I shoot at. There is always a queue at the stands. Where I do most of my shooting, there is also quiet a lot of 18-30 year olds shooting. More than other grounds I've...
