    Questions regarding the rising cost of shooting

    February 1988 when I bought my 30" 682 supersport they had not long been on the market, RRP was £1300, I paid £970 cash, only know this because I sold it  4 or 5 years ago and have photo's of the original receipt and insurance valuation, seem to remember decent cartridges were around £80, white...

    Think your Sunday is going badly? Look at my barrel..

    I was not suggesting that is what he should buy, was just putting it out there. I know about the so called handling  of the gun, back in the 80's my pal a serial gun changer settled on the fixed choke 32" trap, sung its praises, he used it for everything, even won some championship skeet comp...

    Think your Sunday is going badly? Look at my barrel..

    forgive my ignorance, just trying to get it clear, but if you bought the new gun be it an already Teaque multi choked sporter but with the full Miroku warranty as I suggested, then put your wood on it would it not then become the same as the trap version with after market Teaque chokes...

    Think your Sunday is going badly? Look at my barrel..

    to late now you have done the deal, but I quoted for a new 'new' grade 1 sporter already Teaque multi choked at £1660 with warranty sourced from Guntrader not a dog of a second hand one for £900. which is probably the minimum that you could get for your complete 29" barrelled gun.

    Think your Sunday is going badly? Look at my barrel..

    sorry antse7en, I don't get it when you can buy a new grade one for £1660, or a second hand grade 5 for a couple of hundred more then swap the wood, then you have a whole matching numbers gun to sell

    Think your Sunday is going badly? Look at my barrel..

    well, on reflection, agreeing with Feddypip I think I would go with the original offer from Teaque to cut down and choke the barrels, then make no further decision until I had persevered and put a couple of thousand through it, I think there is a chance that you will never be happy with this...

    Beretta 687 EELL Diamond Pigeon Scroll Adjustable Sporter/Game L/H 30in Optima Barrels

    looks to be one of the older type, I have one, you could do with posting better photo's, one of the underside of the action, presume it will not steel proofed then, like mine, (mind that doesn't matter as the barrels are the same) along with having 2 3/4" chambers, in your photo the gold plate...

    Think your Sunday is going badly? Look at my barrel..

    I have followed this thread with interest, I own up to the fact that since purchasing my DT11 the 1/4 & 1/4 chokes have only been finger tightened when I remembered, sometimes needing over a full turn to return to finger tight.  no barrel bulging here. I would take the offer from Westley...

    DT11's

    only use fibre, its normally 28g universal trap 8's for clays through 1/4 and 1/4, get some impressive breaks on the longer targets, use 1/2 and 1/2 in the 725  that has 18.6 bores no problems with that either

    Keeping one's licence when moving house??

    moved from Greater Manchester to Northumberland, then from there back to Lancashire, guns and cabinets in the car, both times notified both FAO's of the impending move via email, both times Firearms Officers came quite quickly to check cabinet installation, took the old certificates/licence away...

    Best for sporting 30” or 32”

    was thinking about getting a 20 bore, so had a shoot with a 32" 725, thought it handled well, if I was to buy one it would be a contender, but then I thought why?
