    Another price increase for cartridges at end of January

    I have checked several price lists for cartridges and it seems the difference between 24 gr and 28 could be as little as £2 per thousand to app£14 hardly earth shattering savings.

    Another price increase for cartridges at end of January

    we are just being shafted now.and purely because they can.they try and blame the war in Ukraine for shortages of materials but that conflict has been running for years and what about all the other conflicts that have been ongoing for decades they never caused such constant ridiculous...

    Wet, Cold & No Birds.

    while there are some who will try and claim ridiculous amounts of no birds there are grounds that I have come across that claim they do not have any no birds.if I get two no birds that is what I claim if I get twenty then I expect those deducted if not that ground will not see me again.

    Cartridges , value for money versus cost

    I don't think there is anything at the moment that is value for money.profiteering is the watchword for all things

    Another old chestnut!

    they can call themselves whatever they like it will not change anything.none of the so called organisations do anything to protect our sport which is why we as the sporting shooters are an endangered species.

    Coaches / Instructors what is a “fair” rate

    there is plenty of knowledge to be found on the internet if its good or not is anyones guess.i would say that a coach giving you the knowledge would need to be able to set you on the practical path of using it and correcting the use.and that would i guess need to fire the gun a few more than...

    Coaches / Instructors what is a “fair” rate

    i have seen a few coaches at various grounds price from 100 upwards.i was surprised at how few shots some of these involved plenty of talk.also its not just a case of how much the coach has won the pupil needs to gel with them also.

    Shooting fitness

    there is no dount that being overweight will in time have health consequences however my response was because it seemed to be going that to be good at this sport you need go be of athletic build.there are many great shots out there who are large and winning.

    Shooting fitness

    the greatest world champion this world has ever seen and ever likely to see is a big chap it has not stopped him being the very best.no doubt he will slow down as all of us will as we age.i wonder how many of the super fit would use a golf cart if they could be as good.

    question of choke

    i have the optima hp chokes in my dt11 black.my question to those far more knowledgeable is i have a gold band one and a green band but both show 4 stars which i presume to be 1/4 however with a rather crude choke opening tool the green is definitely more open than the gold.so why would two...
