As much as I like Elton, I can’t help thinking it’s past time he called it a day, if I’m honest.
He’s doing an amazing job for a 76 year old performer, but there were more key changes than a Yale factory, and his voice just doesn’t have it anymore.
The Gabriel’s however, are well worth the effort and worthy of their own slot.I think he has at the end of this tour .

why oh why do these old stuffed pop stars put themselves out there when their voices are totally gone due to overweight and age.........Elton is croaking his way thro' old numbers and sounds like an old sick cockrell......ready for the chop for ferret food
such a shame and pitiful.........and thats what he will be remembered for...not for what he was..........stupid ole bottom gasser
Looking at the crowds reaction and having watched it myself you’re in the minority…… certainly not pitiful.

They don’t report every dog attack or drunken brawl in England either, that’s my point. They’ve jumped on a chance to post a negative story about shooting.
They do post international news also, but usually only the big stories. This certainly is not.
Very negative reporting on golf as well ,I think I might make a complaint.

A bit far from Newquay,and I think they are only open on Saturday but there is Sky High Shooting ground near Holsworthy,and Tatson shooting ground nearby.Bradford ground is open for practice on Tuesday from 2 pm,that’s near Holsworthy too,Sport trap,Skeet and DTL.
Apologies didn’t read post properly though you wrote Torquay .
-
Ashcombe shooting ground is worth a look I think they have a website it’s fairly near Torquay.

I would be pleased with that paint job ,painting sticks is usually how you end up ruining them nice job.

Talk to him .

Used it in lead wildfowling loads and it did make a difference. As I now load steel, and will try TSS, there is no need for it. Not sure about Bismuth.
I think it’s become obsolete with steel ,shame as I just found some Bsb and mix 47 at the back of a cupboard.
-
Does anyone use buffer in there homeloads , I did years ago for Bismuth but didn’t notice much difference when I left it out.

Laithwaites are very good and you can get a big discount when you sign up for first order and there is always a deal to be had somewhere.
-
They are as good as I’ve seen anywhere,I like using the collars sometimes it just puts a nice finishing touch .
I agree with you about the therapeutic side it’s a great way to empty the head for an hour or two.
Your thumb sticks using different wood tops is an idea I had thought about but not got around to ,top work.

Good condition, classic Winchester 3 inch magnum Blueing good woodwork sound ,fairly lightly used over the years .

Just had my renewal through and they now state that even if you are not at fault it could go up if something happens
That’s a ****** and unfair.

You will need to adjust slightly more packing than lead (11.3) or Tss (15.0).
If you are using BPI plastic TPS wads, I cut mine down to fit the load and then add a filler wad below to bring height back up.
Thanks for that much appreciated.

Not tested as such but....
BPI in 3 inch quote 14gr of lilgun and 5\8oz TSS 15 in Cheddites hull for 1215ftsec and 12650psi which is near top end.
11\16 oz 3" lead loads using 13gr lilgun come in at 13,500psi (which is top end) for 1135ftsec
2.5" lead 1\2oz loads using 13gr of lilgun come in at an average of 11500 psi for 1200ftsec
13gr would be a safe place to be.
Thanks for that Stonepark would that be the same as TSS 18 but with further ,more or less packing for load height ?
-
Was wondering if anyone could come up with any tested 1/2 oz tss data for a 410 I have Cheddite hulls and lilgun powder .
private message if you like ,many thanks in advance .

Yes it drives me mad ,also people that say “yes no “ what’s that all about ?

Trouble is that’s a complete pain in the *** for someone else who has an anxious dog with problems on a lead who doesn’t want to take the lazy option, your making your problem there problem which is a bit selfish .
Theres no easy answer to the question just good advice and time .
