    Miss fire!

    It is because in a browning the bottom firing pin is set at an angle. The pin for the top barrel is not at an angle.

    Customising

    Look at Amber Hill’s gun. It doesn’t happen much, but it is done some times. Nowadays laminated stocks are also available.

    Browning XS Pro Sporter

    I am using mine for (Olympic) skeet. For 3 years already. Tried a Mk38 sporter, 725 sporter and 725 pro sport before buying the 525 ultra xs pro. I have small hands, I like how the grip is slim and the stock is thinner than on the pro sport. Mine is a 30” and came perfectly balanced at the hinge...

    Skeet shells

    The steel thing

    Oké, without a plastic cup I am not sure what the effect is. I can imagine that if that is what it takes ground owners will start to allow them and clean them up. No shooters is no income.

    The steel thing

    Steel shot wearing out the barrels is a non existing problem.  I wonder if switching to steel really will be a problem at all. Why don’t you all just buy some steel shot cartridges and try them?

    The steel thing

    I know people that shoot 24grs and 28grs steel through full choke barrels. There are stories of the barrels ballooning, but that is only a very small chance. What is destroyed is the pattern though. That is the main reason not to use full choke and steel. I think that our grounds are much...

    The steel thing

    I am from Holland. I have only ever used steel shot, since lead has already been banned here since way back when.  I can’t tell you what the difference is. I can only tell that steel does the job, and that shooting it is great fun.

    new gun

    For me it is exactly the other way around. a Prosport stock is too much wood for me. I like the XS pro stock much better.
