  1. I did roast it on a bed of onions I find with these birds mind you don’t get a lot of juice off them, I assume because they aren’t brined / soaked in / injected with salt water to inflate the weight. Just get a bit of fat come off that’s good to add in.
  2. Bisto best, nicer than the cardboard tub, comes in a glass jar. Add the meat juices and water from the veg. Nothing worse than runny gravy.
  3. Goose fat makes great roasties. The chicken was bang on, crunchy skin almost like pork crackling!
  4. Roast chicken, free range corn fed, much better than those water injected rubbish ones… goose fat roasted potatoes, and lots of veg… with PROPER gravy, thick like it’s meant to be!
  5. Have a Spanish master SxS been cut down to 26”, double trigger, non ejector, about 14 1/2 lop, chokes are around 1/4 and 3/8. Located just outside Bristol. Need the space, currently on my mates ticket but he also needs the space. Rough and ready but works fine. Free to a good (or bad) home. Need it gone asap!
  6. The 410 was great for uncle Lloyd to shoot but far too short for me. I did hit one holding it from the hip mind!
  7. It’s normally the people that eat too much that have issues staying alive.
  8. I’d say it’s the stock length / gun weight more an issue than the recoil.
  9. I use Hornady superformance in my 1:8 Tikka and haven’t missed any live game I’ve used it on yet. Not a big number but it’s good. I’m not interested in trying to shoot little groups tbh.
  10. Sorry I should have said, it was a W&S OU. Single trigger, fixed choke, non ejector, with 3” chamber. Similar to this one (looks the exact model). https://www.guntrader.uk/guns/shotguns/webley-scott/over-under/410-gauge/410-junior-240223145627002
  11. Any have experience of a Webley and Scott 410? My nephew used a junior version today at a clay ground and shot well concerning he’s only 12. Compared to a Yildiz or Kofs they seemed pretty decent quality. Fixed choke and non ejectors mind. How much difference does a multi choke in a 410 even make? The barrels are so small does it even make any difference? My BIL is looking to buy one for him to use now so considering the W&S vs Yildiz etc.
  12. It’ll be stamped on the side of the barrel possibly, next to the calibre.
  13. Thanks, we are going up again in November Where did you source them?
  14. Hornady I meant. The old CZ’s were 1:12. To be honest what other people are using don’t matter, gotta see what your rifle likes.
  15. I think the newer CZ’s are 1:9 twist. Although I THINK the varmint always had 1:9 or a 1:8 🤔 How old is the rifle? My tikka is 1:8 but shoots 53gr v-max hot day super performance lovely. Haven’t bothered trying to shoot tiny groups. Nails foxes and anything else I point them at.
  16. Great guns, love mine in 177.
  17. Thank you, it was brilliant Love America. Something about it. I suppose as we share a common language and therefore share lots of things across music, media and film industry a lot of places there are recognisable so spark an immediate interest, which you don’t get when visiting European places… at least that’s what I felt anyway. Yellow lines are flights and white lines driving.
  18. My wife and I did 11 weeks touring the USA before we got married loved every minute of it!
  19. Drones are still aircraft’s. Some the size of planes. UK places shooting down Iranian aircraft… what’s the justification for that? Defending our ally?
  20. UK and US aircraft shot down Iranian aircraft?
