Russell's comment is not to use less than maximum load but to use the maximum load you are allowed to in competition. Two Olympic medals, 2 World Championships golds, multiple World Cups medals across double trap and Olympic Trap etc would seem to bare this out.

Its not a rifle , so no need to aim. So slap the trigger!

Used a pair of the C Mask, they looked to be  good value. I was told that you could select any 3 lenses in the range. The pair I used came with a yellow, orange and purple. The purple was very good and the lens I used the most in all light conditions. The range is not as expansive as Pilla but...

Using Italian 8's on UT in the first barrel will be fine. Italian 8's = English 71/2's. Italian 8's = 2.3mm. I have used T3 8's in both barrels on OT and have no problems breaking targets with the second barrel. Try these in practice so you have confidence to use them in competition. One...

Heat up the recoil pad around the stock with a hair dryer to help soften the glue, not too much as you do not want to wreck the pad by melting it. Sometimes a sharp knock on the recoil pad will remove it once it has been heated up. Or use a flat thin paint scraper or thin knife to start to...

Hi Sian, It is after the shooter to the left has opened their gun. This allows for protests and malfunctions to be considered by the referee. This time may also change with less than 6 shooters in the squad. Section out of ISSF rule book 9.7.3 Preparation Time Limit a) An athlete must take...

Yes the costs to get to Europe are huge, and unfortunately shooting at all levels in NZ is all self funded. While it is nice a quiet down here, the costs to attend overseas competitions is high so it limits the amount of competitions that we can attend. Tony's club and club members organised...

Well done Broggy!

When you open the gun, make sure to cam the barrels all the way open. If the gun is new/and tight, and chances are you are not getting the barrel open-down far enough to fully cock them before loading new rounds. If that is not it, then remove the forearm and double check to make sure that the...

IPS, he has also listed the other 80 shooters he considered to make "his" top 20. Thats the fun of lists everyone has their own order and their own list of who should be on it. or not.  What makes this lists interesting is that Russell has competed with a number these shooters, that are on...

Still using the same tube of grease that I got with my Perazzi. When talking to the Perazzi gunsmith when the gun was getting an annual service his comment was it didn't matter if it was grease or oil as long as it was cleaned off after shooting and reapplied fresh the next day. His other...

Congrats, on your first 100. Its a great confidence booster, good luck, and good shooting for many more.

If it is your first gun, get it fitted first. Ideally it will have an adjustable comb. Get the LOP and the pitch set up correctly for you, as it will stop recoil problems later on and make shooting fun. Once the gun is shooting where you are looking, you will shoot more targets and enjoy the...

London was shot under the old , old rules. The final was 25 single barrel with the final score added to the qualifing rounds. From 1 Jan 2013 it was the old rules, top 6 shooting 15 single barrel targets over lanes 2,3,4. The semi finals started from zero. From the semi final the top two...

Looks good, originally you where going to Perazzi for a new stock, what changed your mind to get one from Essevierre? As I am looking to get a stock made by Perazzi when I go to Europe next year.

Where is the dvd available from and what does it cover?

Hi Bob, welcome would love to hear about your work with Vincent. I am getting tripped up with the mental game, would like to find out how to get back on track after a minor set back.

Wow! 62 shooters shoot in 120s. Well done Antonio to shot 15 in semi and finals.

There is a big difference between the PFS and the Evocomp grips. Aside from the price aspect. For the PFS is only one choice of grip for each model of gun, the Evocomp can be custom made to your grip to ensure better gun fit.  While you can add plastic wood to the PFS grip it still will...
