    To Choke Or Not ?

    Alright - would be nice to hear how they perform. Mine gun (1998) wasn't steel proofed either - I have e-mailed Krieghoff and they've send me the instructions regarding steel shot for mine - excerpt:

    Nice - just like mine 👍 - what constriction did you get?

    K80 A couple of questions

    My guess is handed stocks comply with the arrival of Parcours model - whenever that was - best ask Alan Rhone: https://www.alanrhone.com/index.html

    You can also contact Krieghoff directly (they have all the data there is available, they speak Englisch and are very professional) - they will get back to you: https://www.krieghoff.de/kontakt/

    Higher visibility front beads ?

    I had a whole set for the B725 ProTrap but only used the small white one. On the K80, I first replaced the large white with a small white and finally mounted a 2mm silver midbead at the end of the barrel.

    Mid level Competition cartridge

    "Dirty" cartridges may also be the result of cold and damp storage conditions. Recoil is mostly dependant on velocity and weight of the shot, less on the powder type - physics - I have yet to found a super fast cartridge that is super soft... Then there is a psychics - highly subjective - it...

    To Choke Or Not ?

    I bought my K80 second hand - it was originally fix-choked and multichoked later (before I bought it), later I ordered Teague bespoke thinwall extended chokes in 2x3/8 +1x 5/8 constriction. Those are best made (once you hold them you get to appreciate the marksmanship) - thin like paper, dont...

    Fibre and Choking

    It depends - hardness of the shot has far more influence on pattern than wad. Less difference when shot has a high antimony percentage (hard shot). On low antimony percentage shot (soft shot) there is more difference when shooting with plastic or fibre wad. Does it matter - IMO it is just...

    Shooting glasses for spec wearers ?

    I have an old Pilla Sebring model. After my sight went south I went to optician here (Slovenia) and then sent the specs I got to Ed Lyons (UK). We chose the colour/tint and I have sent him the pic of me with mounted gun toward camera...Without meeting him, he supplied me with lenses that fit...

    Tightest patterning fibre cartridge

    The harder the shot and the slower the cartridge, the tighter it will pattern - Hull Pro Fibre are sure there - here are targets - left through 3/8 at 20m and right through 5/8 at 40m:

    Cone height

    By all means get someone competent to straight things up - in the meantime watch this (esp. from 3:20 on):
