    Beretta 690 Black Sporting..?

    I’ve had a 32” 690 black since spring last year and am very happy with it. Had a Miroku 7000 previously. Great intermediate gun but ultimately found I wanted longer barrels and didn’t like the Teagued mk38 sporter in 32”. My B is now in the 8 3/4 weight range really. Heavy on a game day trudging...

    The Highwaymans 150 sporting challenge sept 22-24

    Shot this morning. Enjoyed George’s targets far more than the others. Then again I shot the first course much better than the second which I thought was rather difficult at times. Missed plenty of stupid ones but hit some hard ones that I wasn’t expecting to do so well on. Sent from my iPhone...

    Bogey Birds

    For a while it was teal, but soon fixed that by borrowing a trap and setting up In our field and just moving around shooting at different distances behind and angles of to the sides. Now I barely ever miss one. Put it completely down to hold point being too low and therefore having too much gun...

    New game.

    Tried star shot a Whitfield highbirds clay shoot and it's great fun. Highly addictive I found! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Sporting shoots. Where - and how did it go?

    Shot the registered at Doveridge on the 30th while I was in the area on holiday. Thought I'd see what the fuss was about in relation to Clive bramleys targets! Ended up on a 60. I am C class but have been shooting nearer the 70's lately. Was only a 12 stand shoot, apparently had issues with...

    Hatfield house game fair

    We camped Thursday and Friday night, attended on the Friday only. In comparison to my only other big gamefair experience at harewood a few years back I thought it was excellent. Campsite had plenty of space and facilities, no convenience store as for some reason the vendor left the site before...

    As above, anybody going to this? 'In association with' George digweed, does that mean he'll be setting the targets? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    No bead?

    I've a copy of Ben's DVD if you're interested OP? It's a good guide of how to use each technique and where it's most appropriate. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    probably done before ?

    I've put a mid bead on in place of the fibre optic Red one on my 690 black. The red distracted my eye trying to focus on the target. If your gun fit and mount is correct then it won't really matter one bit. Unless it's part of a pre shot routine to premount and calm your head by lining them up...

    Aftermarket Chokes

    The black Teague extended chokes look great in my matt black 690 in comparison to the silver included chokes and they're 5/8 which Beretta don't do so that's the only real difference. Nothing wrong with standard chokes at all. Having two of the same choke is one of the best things I've done...

    Prize money

    3 months maybe? They should get contact details really and text/email the winners and if they get no reply then they should roll it over to the next comp rather than absorbing it into their own takings. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Need help making a decision.

    Seems to be same Story throughout the country, every dealer I've tried will 'get back to me' nobody has got me a date yet! Looks like I'll be doing the cut the cartridge off at the wad trick and packing it in the back in the mean time! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Need help making a decision.

    As far as I'm aware the drop and comb height of all 3 are the same. Can't comment on cast of course. The browning and Miroku will have A 15" LOP I believe. The mk60 is another option in the high pheasant model it's really well balanced but no multi chokes. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Need help making a decision.

    I had exactly the same decision to make as you a month ago!! I knew I wanted to upgrade to 32" barrels from an old Miroku 28" 7000. York had the 690 black, mk38 Teague grade 5 and b725 black. A friend has the b725 and I shoot well with it, it has perfect balance off the shelf and a comfy palm...

    Sporting Barrels on Miroku

    80%??? Don't know what you're worried about! Plenty of people will be looking to go with tighter chokes at this stage to get better patterns on the rangier stuff. Just practice more on close targets, be more precise. That's basically the difference you're seeing with wider chokes, you're not...

    Barrel Length

    For what it's worth, as a beginner I found a 28" easier to learn with as there is less barrel hanging out front to cause fatigue from holding it for longer as you sort your mount and take most shots with the gun in your shoulder etc. Even a well balanced 32" gun will have the effect of feeling...
