  2. Reloading Steel shot

    in Bullets, Cartridges and Reloading

    Posted

    Hi

    Been reloading 12g 6 shot 30g with Maxam CSB 5 for about 3 years now an it has been great . The powder was £19 pounds when I started now £42

    I'm looking for steel shot load data to start of with, once fired 70mm 12g  hull case, 30/32 gram No 4 steel shot ,B&P S32 wad, Maxam PSB2 powder, cx2000 primer.

    came across a video on the tube a guy called Howard Marshall has data from clay an game 28/29 grams  No 7 steel shot with 26.5 grains of PSB2 powder.

    so any info would be welcome

    Thanks Hayburn

    I have a decent drone that I use for when I am out shooting, plus I use it for other purposes. 

    They save you doing alot of walking and you get a bigger picture.

    for different reasons.

    Thanks for the reply's ..This is the one I was watching the videos on, it gets great reviews. an because of it's size you can almost fly it anywhere, also the software they use puts restriction on flight zones etc

    With regard too drones I have one they are not that noisy and do not spook birds as msg claims I had mine hovering about 50’ over a bleedin pigeon on my roof it didn’t move until I buzzed it then it went, also mine has a camera on it quite handy which we used once to find a downed model aircraft as the controller has a screen on it so yes you could survey land as such to see where any damage was occurring and wind doesn’t really affect mine and it was only couple hundred quid not an expensive one. I do know about model flying as I have my model aircraft bmfa qualification too fly and fly quite regularly.You could not use a jet model aircraft as mentioned by msg have you flown one I have a couple of them a few times I would not even consider a aircraft stick with a drone. But if you did go down the drone route you would need too pass the CAA exam quite easy really get insured then you would have a CAA No which has to be attached to the drone, all that caused by some idiot down at Gatwick the other year so sensible flyers like me now have too suffer because of 1 idiot. But in reality if you have permissions and the farmers ok what about just going for a walk around and noting where there is crop damage etc and it healthier for you and your bank balance. By the way my drone up for sale as don’t use it anymore 

    I do walk around the area but I cant get my car near some of the fields and I tend to keep to the edge of the fields. I have AF ( Atrial fibrillation) an the area is hilly in parts I run out of steam . also takes its toll. I just wonder If members used it to there advantage. What is the drone model you use do you have a link?

    I apologise if this has been covered before. I was on Y/T the other day and came across videos on drones. I was very impressed at the size of the drone  and the quality of the video. It got me thinking .Does anyone on here use a drone on there shooting permission ?  My permission (fields)  are split in different areas on the same farm. would it be any good for checking fields, crop damage, vermin location etc.

    What are the advantages if any ?

  9. SGC renewal Scotland

    How did you get on Docleo.  I received a renewal letter from police Scotland on the 8 November , It said in the letter  complete a 201 form and

    do not send it in. An FEO officer will be in contact, thinking as my licence isn't up till Feb 2022 didn't think I would here from them till DEC/Jan.

    As I had to contact Doctors, referees, passport photo. I get a call on 10th from FEO asking about doctors ,referees, and to arrange an appointment to come out and see

    me on the 24th . He spoke to both of my referees on the 11th November. No harm on giving them a call or an email .
