that because your brilliant !!I don't have any!!
That's all you need Bryn. Do you know how to use the two beads? (you are a new shooter arn't you?)gun I'm getting has a wee white bead foresight and a smaller one further back, at the moment I find it handy to check I've mounted the gun correctly but in time they should become irrelevant. Had pondered getting a nice bright one then thought hang-on I'm supposed to watch the birdy
The truth is, it took me ages to "get" the figure of 8 thing. I know, but often those things that are really obvious to some are the things that get the least amount of explaination, if you get me?i love a bead discussion there usually good for 6 pages and we never reach a conclusion
More a resurrected shooter and new to taking clays seriously with a little experience with borrowed OUs. Grew up rough shooting with various family SxSs ranging from a lovely little 410 to an ancient single 8 bore which I'm the only idiot in living memory to have used, dad reckons it belonged to my GG grandfather, I reckon someone just stuck a butt and a fore-end on a captured cannon after Waterloo, its big ugly beast of a thing but has a charm of its own.That's all you need Bryn.

So if Bryn is a new shooter (which I think he might be) I felt he might find it useful to know about this rather than possibly go out and buy the flashing light and bourbles on offer.
In short, my understanding is that when you're dry mounting/practicing your gun mount, as a beginner in particular, you should seek to learn a mount which creates a picture where the bead at the muzzle end, sits atop the smaller centre bead so that it looks like a figure of 8. Or a snowman :biggrin:
This practice should not creep into your actual shooting routine, as when shooting clays, you should be looking at the target.
Is this when the fighting starts?
