Thanks all, I'll take closer look at the comb when I go next time (hopefully week after next!)

Thanks all very informative! 

Thanks very much! Will do a bit more research on gun position, to be honest after the first 50 I was fine. But towards end of second 50 I started to feel it.  Any thoughts on active ear protection? 

Newbie here, gone shooting 3 times, on my last shoot I did more that at any time before.  I did 2x 50 bird shoots yesterday, my shoulder is a bit sore this morning. Combination of it being new to me and also not always fully seating gun right I think, but I just a jumper and waterproof on, I...

Thanks, looking forward to my next shoot in a couple of weeks!

So just done your test, yes, my position does not change. As I sit here on the latop, I pointed at the door handle, shut left eye and the position does not change. If I shut my right eye, the position does change. So that's settled that! Thanks will always shoot both eyes open now! Now it's...

Thanks, right eye master? Could you be more specific? I might ask if they have a 30" I can use on loan  :smile:

Hi all, So I've posted up before about gun storage, today I went down Chalky Hill shooting to get some practice in. I met with Duncan who let me hire a gun, I did 2x50 bird shoots and loved every shot! Some of the stands I nailed them getting 4/4 or 6/6 others, could not hit a barn door...

Just to add, my garage is attached to the house. Quick Google suggests that does help.  Does that garage door need to be special? More beefy locks? It's a standard garage door currently. 

Ah, it needs to be the house itself? That's a defo a non starter. For one the house is 2012 build, every wall is hollow thanks to insulation. (so no solid walls anywhere, would have to go through plaster board and insulation) Also sod all space in the house, I was expecting a garage to be ok. 

Hi all, Firstly many thanks for all the replies, it's great to find such an active forum!  To answer some questions: 1) I'm married with a daughter, so new wife would be VERY expensive! :D 2) Yes I will report back on Basingstoke ground. 3) Yes my plan is to go here a few times, really...

Thanks, yes I may need to 'wear' her down. I think by doing some lessons for a while might convince her, as I've only done it twice she thinks I will loose interest. Thing is, Bisley is almost perfect for me, I could actually cycle there it's so close. My issue is the large up front cost, with...

Hi, Newbie here, so I've done a couple of Corporate Clay shoots and I did one on my stag, each time out of a round of 40 clays I've been hitting 30+, so really pleased and hooked! Perhaps all those hours on XBOX Call of Duty paid off?  :D Anywho, looking at getting into the Sport. I'm based...
