So went to Grimsthorpe today to shoot some practise and have a blast on the high tower arena. After about 100 shells got a double discharge on my DT11. 1 more normal pair and then another double discharge. Put the gun away then and used my dads 694 after that. Anyone know of any common issues...

With all the noise about non toxic being on the agenda, I thought I would have a look at the stamps on my DT11 when I was cleaning it yesterday. To my surprise I couldn't find a fleur de lys stamp. Has anyone else got a DT11 that either is or isn't proofed for HP steel, or am I looking in the...

Anybody got any tips on how to spot the difference between an English and French partridge in flight when on the peg?

Hi All, just a little reminder to everyone that entries opened for the british at Swinton last night, book on quick if you want to go as entries are filling up fast. Saturday has completely gone already and Friday on its way.

How do you break into the UK gun market these days with a new brand? Who's got it right and who has got it badly wrong? Is there a recipe for success or are we very change resistant regardless?

I see the cpsa have announced the English open will be at Barbury this year. Little bit of a trek for a lot of the country, but will hopefully be worth the journey.

Anybody else had the trigger group on a DT11 develop play in it within the action. Mine has never been the snuggest fit but it has now got to the point where I have put a strip of ptfe tape on the front lug to tighten it up. Should they be slightly loose or a very snug fit? Thanks

Has the lack of shooting caused you to re-evaluate your shooting? Are you going to do anything different when shooting returns? Spend more, spend less, practise more, less comps, more comps etc Personally I'm going to try and relax a bit more, try not to worry about my score and average and try...

I've just recently purchased a browning 30" 525 sporter 20 gauge for my fibre and game shooting for this next year. I've picked up a few single boxes of eley high fliers in a 28 gram 6, and they are a very nice little cartridge. Any other recommendations to try in the 28 gram bracket greatly...

Hi all, Following having the disaster of the stock on my dt11 cracking from the rear of the top tang the other day, it has left me questioning the tightness of my stock bolt. Was it too tight, too loose etc. I believe that I had it pretty much right as never had one come loose or crack before...

Hi all, At just a few months shy of 40 years old it's looking like I have developed arthritis of the neck. Just mild symptoms at the minute, cracking/ clicking of the neck when rotated, tight muscles in the shoulders and neck, occasional numbnous and aching of arms and legs, sciatica etc...

Hi all, question for anyone with a factory beretta adjustable comb on a 692 or dt11 etc. Is it possible to adjust the comb for height to an angle, say 1 spacer on the front post and 3 to 4 on the back post for example, or does the comb need lifting even? Thanks 

Hi all, looking for a right hand adjustable sporter stock for a dt11 if anyone sees one or has one at all. Thanks Martin 

What system are people using on crossing game birds? I shoot crossing clays with the mount on and pull away method to reasonably good effect. I have been trying to shoot game with a controlled swing through for driven and crossers, driven it's working fine but any crossing birds seem to be...

Bit of an open discussion. Most of us have all got that one re-occurring problem that costs us a few targets nearly ever time that we shoot. Mine is currently head lifting and not pushing through to complete the shot, resulting in stopping the gun and killing the gun movement. Do it a hand...

I see that on the cpsa classifications section the class cut offs for issue 55 are already showing for Dec 1st onwards. Are these set in advance or just predicted and open to change once all the scores are in?
