In four weeks time I will be shooting a large corporate Sporting competition at Woodland Pursuits, in Surrey. The rules are that fibre cartridges must be used. As I normally only shoot plastic, can anyone recommend a decent cartridge?  I seem to remember I shot with Hull Pro Fibre last year. I...

Turned up to Horne this morning on my own, as all my shooting buddies weren't allowed out to play two days running. Just got a new gun (2nd hand DT11) and it is so different from my 682 Gold E that I've been shooting the last couple of years. First proper outing today and I need to get used to...

Does anyone own skeet shooting DVDs by either Todd Bender, Paul Giambrone or Dave Beardsmore? If so, I would like to beg, borrow, buy or swap with some general sporting clay DVDs I have by GD, Ben Husthwaite, Gebben Miles and Phil Coley. Cheers

It would appear that unbeknown to each other, there were at least seven or eight forum members at Horne a fortnight ago. If you are going to be there tomorrow it would be good to put a face to a name, so lets see some info how we can recognise you. I am slim, suave and a liar. Howevere I will...

I know I am in danger of being lambasted by the slightly less enlightened members, but is there any one that competes regularly at the top level in English Sporting or English Skeet using a semi auto? If not , why not? Is it the stigma that the British still attach to semi autos, or is...

I went to shoot some skeet at Dartford today with my new (3 weeks old) Beretta 682 Gold E. On the third round, station 4 double, the first barrel fired but not the second. I went to push the top lever over and that was solid. I then had a live cartridge in the gun with no way to get it out...

I have just treated myself to a new game gun for next season. A bit premature, but it was belated birthday present to myself and I reasoned that I could get use to it during the summer. It is a Beretta  Pigeon 1 Deluxe 20 bore 30". The woodwork on it is rather nice and before I take it out I...

Many congratulations to Peter Wilson and Ian Coley for their awards. Thoroughly deserved and a recognition for clay shooting.

As a new member of the forum, I have been hugely impressed by people's friendliness and willingness to help. I would like to say a special thank you to the two above members who, between them, have delivered 2000 Cheddite Universal Trap cartridges to me after extolling the virtues of this...

I have to go to Fakenham (Norfolk) on business in a couple of weeks, visiting Newmarket the next day. Can anyone suggest somewhere between the two (Lakenheath?) that has a Skeet layout and where I could possibly get a Skeet lesson? Also a decent hotel would be nice. I’m presently thinking of...

How many of you use cartridge pouches and why? I am presently using a standard Beretta Shooting Vest, but have seen quite a few people at shoots recently with the pouches. Is the only benefit that you don't have to wear the vest? Thanks

I have just finished picking and pickling a load of chillis, so thought this might amuse a few people, *Note: Please take time to read this slowly. If you pay attention to the first two judges, the reaction of the third judge is even better! For those of you who have lived in or visited...

Just a brief note to thank Gary for his help and advice today. I arranged to meet with Gary, through the forum. If you see my introduction, in a previous post, you will know that I am a game shooter who has just started clay shooting. Gary was on hand today at Robin Hood shoot to give me his...

I thought I would take the time to introduce myself, having been lurking and reading as many posts as I could, since joining the forum a couple of weeks ago. Sadly well past fifty years old now, I have been predominantly a game/rough shooter for the past forty odd years. I also do a fair bit of...
