hello mate, welcome to PW.

welcome mate.

do you know how its chambered? i may be interested if its 3''

hello mate, i'm a squaddie too. working in cirencester at the moment. welcome to pigeon watch mate.

thats a fair point. food must be scarce as i went for a walk around my permission the other day and everything was frozen solid. not an animal to be seen anywhere except seagulls!

hello mate, yeah you can just turn up an shoot whenever you like, no need to become a member but if you shoot there a lot you will save a few quid by joining. as you drive in there are about 6 trap and skeet ranges on your left. they usually put on a mixture of disciplines and a compaq sporting layout too. there a re a few novice stands there too and these can be good for building your confidence on and just warming up a bit before you move onto the proper ones. some of the lads i shoot with do a few pairs on them before we shoot. then up the hill either in the top field or around the back there is a very good sporting section. with pretty much every kind of bird you will ever come across. if your not sure about the different disciplines, in general they are: TRAP-birds going away from you at different angles and elevations. (there are a few different types such as double trap, automatic ball trap, down the line ect, but the principle is the same with all of them) for these you want a tight choke and a large shot size like 7.5 because the birds will be quiet far out by the time you shoot them. SKEET- the same birds over and over again, crossing you at different angles from a low and a high tower, as you move around a semi circle.(they have english skeet and olympic skeet, which is faster and in a slightly different format) for these you'll need a very open choke, and small shot size like 9's because you want to put as many pellets as you can in the air to hit the clay which is pretty close to you but moving very fast. it can be a bit intimidating when your new to the sport seeing all the regular guys with all the gear shooting really well, but i can assure you most people up there will be more than happy for you to shoot a round or two with them, and answer any questions you have. mid day, mid week you'll pretty much have the place to your self though. you may find that if there is a big comp coming up they will tend to put more of a certain discipline on but you can always find something you like there. they usually open from 10 untill dusk, an don't use a sat nav to get there because it sends you to the wrong place

fair do's to the lad its bloody freezing out there....as my old man always said ''if your gonna be stupid...you better be tough''

hope this is the out come

yeah you gotta play that as loud as you can

i'm really sorry about this ryantidgwell, but i for one hope this runs and runs its the funniest thing i've heard all year

whats the weather forecast up you way?

AY

its pretty fair to say your roof is now ruined! so just go into the loft, smash a hole in the roof and drag the scrote through it. or as previously suggested set fire to the roof. then the police will let you out of the house, then you can take a few pics. and upload them on here.

if i climbed on some ones roof and started ripping bits off, whilst police and firemen waited below i would fully expect and accept a right royal shoeing when i decided to come down

these coppers are a joke!! he should have been down, thrown in the van and beaten long ago!!!

metal detecting

no not at all

hi mate, never shot Aberkenfig but i shoot SW 2000 regularly. what do you wanna know?

masterbation

thats not a bad idea actually because you don't need it at all really

i wouldn't have thought it was that important. i would just do it by eye. as long as it doesn't look out of place it should be fine
