  1. The HD thing was a mistake, but unless a desire is there for an easing of the restrictions then it will not happen, but the shooting fraternity must show the desire. If you talk it down it will never happen. Northern Ireland, The Islle of Man and the Channel Islands have these rights. Why not everyone else? It would be a long road but only if shooters really want those rights restored.

  2. Watched a field of barley all month. So wet the farmer couldnt cut it. He cut it Wednesday after a few good days and it had flocks of crows and pigeons on it even in the pouring rain. The forecast was good for Thursday so a massacre was being prepared. Thursday morning was sunny and dry with a good breeze over the cut stubble. I set up and shot a crossing woodie after a few minutes then......nothing. Finished at 5 o,clock exactly for 20 birds. You didn't do so bad.

  3. Two weeks ago I built my hide over a field of cut OSR. I was worried that the pigeons were seeing me as a few pulled away from the pattern, however a huge buzzard flew in to eat a dead bird, shot earlier. So the buzzard didn't see me, but later another hawk I could not identify, flew in and settled 15 or 20 feet above me in the branches. I sat watching it and listening to its call. I began clapping my hands and making noise to observe it as it flew away. No luck. It sat on for a minute or so before taking off. Maybe their hearing isn't so good.

  4. It's great to see fellow shooters stand up for another one. Well some. I guess some never set their keys down on a kitchen surface for a second, ever, or god forbid, leave them in your trousers. Can't Pay... is television and those guys love the presence of firearms. I watched it and the bailiff could not wait to get into he attic when he found the keys to show them to the camera. Did anyone see the episode where they found some Airsoft kit?

  5. The two guns most seen at competitions are the benelli M2 or the beretta 1301. The beretta 1301 is an awesome shotgun in looks and feel. I have never used the Benelli M2 but loads of international shooters use it. Not all semi autos are suitable for mag extensions, which are a must for Practical Shotgun. Select you're loading belt/system carefully.

    I took a few hours on a field of cut OSR. I brought my Yeoman, just bought, to try it out. A great days sport. I missed plenty but those I hit I killed, no runners. I guess the half choke and no. 6's does it. High birds and crossers are not my forte but it worked today. As I was clearing up I found someone's lost bino's. They look like a decent pair once, heavy.
