  1. Cheers Will see how i get on for a while, i'd just like to get back to how i was shooting before i stopped for a couple of years and i'd be quite happy
  2. I bought a lenser p7 with gun mount kit and i think its great for the .22 magnum for foxes Small, compact and no battery pack to haul around. Not to pricy either
  3. What way do i sort out eye dominance if it is that? Thanks
  4. Went out yesterday morning and shooting off again Straight to gunsmith and my guns fitting was out he said i was off to the left so changed shims and brought me into line. Its seems to have worked as i was hitting clays a lot easier and not just hitting a few randomly. Didn't get a chance to get to the crows last night but hope to tomorrow evening He even said i had put on weight since the last time he had seen me, hopefully it solves my problem as i like the 391
  5. Rights folks Went to get a few shells today and nearly changed guns to a Browning 525 lovely gun hold but didn't buy. But i did buy some clear pigeons 30g 6's and my shooting has come good again, i never really gave much thought to shells but today has changed my mind to no end! I used to use Clear Pigeons a lot but never really minded what was in the chamber, either i've got my mojo back or the clear pigeons are doing the trick. Will see how tomorrow goes Cheers
  6. Will get out to clays for a while tomorrow and see how i get on Might end up with a new browning ordered before i get home lol
  7. Got out for a while today hitting the pattern plate spot on but went on to do a bit at the crow flight this evening and never hit one! Complete disaster Gonna head to the clay range tomorrow and see how it goes as i'm ready to change guns after today Just out of interest i'm right handed the shim between the stock and fore end has the thicker side towards the left is that correct setting for a right handed person
  8. Thanks guys for all the replies Haven't had a chance yet to get out again this week, but hope to get out friday afternoon if not sat Looking forward to trying out the tips as it would be nice to get into a nice rhythm with the gun Thanks again
  9. Need a few shells this week so might just take gun with me to have them take a quick look at it, fir a few £'s it may be well worth it
  10. I do enjoy the outings a lot but i love a clean kill and it annoys me when i'm not getting them. I haven't had my eyes tested in a while but i haven't noticed any change in them in other aspects of life that said it could be eyes ok as i'm only ever getting older! I'm gonna try the pattern plate with one ind of shell through a few chokes and see where i'm hitting compared to where my eyes is aiming and see what happens Thanks again for all the replies its nice to know theres a bit of help out there
  11. Thanks for taking the time to reply I'm gradually restoring my confidence in the semi before i start with the pattern plate As i said before i don't want to be changing or adding to cabinet as my 391 is still like new Thanks again
  12. lovely Thanks will try and get set up tomorrow
  13. Thanks again for the replies guys I'll get a target set up and see what way the pattern is to my eye on target at the start of the week! Hopefully tomorrow if i can bluff the time away from doing a bit of work! how big would you normally make a pattern plate?
  14. I do like the gun a lot and don't think i'd sell it but i was starting to think about getting a o/u Some shots do knock down really well and its very seldom when i hit that i wing a bird. Its either straight down or flies away. Does anyone have any preferred loads for there semi for rough shooting? Also chokes which do you prefer for the 391's i think if i had a good base for shells and chokes at least i can rule them out and get on with my technique Thanks for all the replies
  15. Cheers guys Will try and get a few goes at the clays next week. When you see the bloody wad near hit the bird you start to wonder is it the shells or choke etc I do like the gun a lot and never had any problem cycling shells no matter how light but then again the gun is always cleaned very well and oiled Just starting to lose faith Thanks again
