I was thinking of giving DTL a try as I've only shot Sporting since getting my licence. I think Park Farm has DTL practice in the evening, mid week so I might pop along. I was wondering about the practicality of it. Do DTL practice stands typically have someone to button and score for you? Or...

Sorry if this a question that has been answered a thousand time already but I've been told conflicting answers at different shoots. shooting ESP, A then B on report, if you hit the first target and the second is a no bird, do you take the pair again and the first kill doesn't count? i.e. A =...

Bit of a long shot but is anyone planning on going to the monthly shoot at Cotswold clay shoot tomorrow? It's a local shoot that's on the first Saturday of every month, going from the last time I was there, it's really well run and has a very diverse ESP layout, nothing too far out but still...

I'm after Muller Optima HP U2, U3 and U4 chokes. Or a full set at the right price (not Muller's ridiculous prices!) There's a few on eBay.com but not .co.uk. Not sure why eBay.co.uk restricts the sale of what is essentially a threaded tube.

I'd like to go to Longridge today to enter in my first registered comp. Their website doesn't look like it's been updated in a few years and I can't find the answer to a few questions I have. The  CPSA website says today is "entries" as opposed to "open" does this mean I needed to pre-book or...

I was wondering about the age of the average of a clay shooter so thought I'd ask here. From my limited experience of the folks I see at shoots, it seems as though there aren't many younger people partaking in clay shooting, and I wanted to raise the question with the CPSA to see what they were...

Bought new 2 months ago for £100. Fits my 30" 690 in no problem, or fits a scoped rifle. Leather has a few patches on the seams where the dye has failed (see pics) but otherwise in good condition. Sturdy leather and thick fleece inner. Accept £60 collected or meet me at a local shoot.  £70...

Flight following camera, following a shotgun round. I find it really interesting as I've never thought about spread in 3D; looking at a pattern plate you only see a 2D image of what's going on and I was surprised how long the spread actually is. It would be great if whoever owns this camera did...

It's a bit of a slow afternoon at work today so I went through Holianl's thread asking what shotgun people used and created a pie-chart. Obviously it's only the people who posted in that thread. I included multiple guns from the same member and anything with only one owner, went in to other. I...

1. How often do you remove the ejectors when cleaning after shooting? Every time, occasionally or never? After watching a youtube video, it seems a lot easier to remove them than I thought. 2. Should I be removing my chokes to clean separately? I understand you shouldn't clean the barrels...

My licence only arrived today and I'm already thinking of other uses for my gun. My question is, is it legal/safe for me to shoot rabbits and foxes on my own land. I have 6 acres on a slight slope and wondered if it is legal for me to shoot rabbits and foxes on my own land if I can be confident...

I have just put a deposit down on a Beretta 690 Sporter and I couldn't be happier. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea but I really like the black and orange action and I've been looking for one with nice wood for ages. It means a trip north but I've never been more excited to go to Derby! I...

It always winds me up when someone in a forum asks for help deciding on a purchase as it's always a subjective decision, but now I've become that guy. I've finally got my licence and can now seriously think about my first gun. I've been to look at a really nice second-hand MK38 sporter with...

Hi there. I'm new to clay pigeon shooting and have a few questions, if you don't mind helping me out. I've been having lessons for about 4 months, I think I've had 6 one hour lessons and probably hitting around 50%, my instructor says that's quite good but I'm not sure if they're just trying...
