I'm getting my dads 16b fotted for me tomorro so I'm going to shoot with that for a while. I'll tell you the results later on. It's SxS by the way, a really nice gun I can't believe he's leting me use it. Ben -

Cool I'll ask my dad to send it too me!!! Thanks alot for your help Ben -

Yes, mostly driven birds and of cource rabits and/or pidgeon at home. Ben -

I've got a black powder 12b atm and it's seriously cool. Ben -

yeh i've got a pair of my Dad's old leather shooting gloves they do the jod quite well, but Iprefer shooting with no gloves on. Ben -

they do have a natural insinct she fetched things for us at a very early age. I've got one currently and they are magnificent. They are really keen. My dog mannaged to pick two teal in the dark half an hour after shootung them, she has a great nose and they have great personalities. Also everyone has labs, I swear I get stopped on the streat about 20 times a month with Erin my IWS. You will not regret getting one. Ben -

I've also heard that you can wear wollen gloves. They apparently keep out the heat very well. Ben -

I was wondering if anyone has one. They're tremendous gundogs. Especially good with duck. I seriously encorage anyone to get one. Ben -

Yes I agree!!! Spread the word. Have you ever met him? Extremely funny guy. I think he's writing another one. Do you read the Shooting Gazette? He's loads of artickles there. He's even done one based on my dog, 'the Irish Water Spaniel'. It's great. Ben -

Thanks for the advice but I'll be doing mostly game shooting. Something to think about though. I wonder iff those leather gripps might help? Ben -

Has anyone read any books by Giles Catchpole? If so what did you think? He is a great friend of mine read them they're hillarios!! The books are titled the following: Birds, Boots and Barrels What a chap really wants in bed Shooting Types Greatful for your views.

I think I will stay with side by side, but it has been sugested to me by my friend Giles catchpole to move up to a 16. At the momment i'm going to try out my fathers 16b Side by side. Thanks for your views! Ben -

Hi I opened this topic to find out peoples general views on the subject. I have been shooting since I was 10 with a 20ga L.T. Bland. I'm going to get a new 16 hopefully, but I've had some heated discussions on whether to get side by side or over and under. Thanks in advance for your views!!! Ben D -
