  1. It`s a terrible shame about the fire. it really did knock the stuffing out of what was a great ground. Unfortunately It may be best to give it a miss... The Cambridge Gun Club is near by & it`s a very friendly club with good amount of sporting stands and a fab cafe... Well worth a look.
  2. As far as I am aware, this is "the wanted section then"... It says "wanted" at the top of the page. What section is it in your world....? Ahh!.. I also put it in the "guns and equipment" section because a lot of people look in it.. Sorry, did I do wrong?
  3. Hi all... I'm looking to buy an Invector DS IMP.CYL 1/4 choke to go with my other Invector DS IMP.CYL 1/4 choke for my 725... Anyone have a spare? Q
  4. Lovely... Count me in please. Q
  5. I'm up for it..It will be my first... Do I just turn up? Q
  6. Cheers Dibs... All makes complete sense Q
  7. Well.... Popped down to the CGC yesterday morning and knocked out 75 cartrages on the same stands (mostly pairs) with no problems what so ever... Everything fine & she shot like a dream. The only difference, was that I didn't wear gloves. I was kind of hoping that something would go wrong, but I'm very happy that it didn't. Spoke to a gunsmith about it, and he assured me that the pitting in the pin would make "no difference what so ever" Maybe it is all in my head &/or finger....!? Q
  8. I would very much like to join in. It would be my first Norfolk flush. What time does it kick off & is the shoot easy enough to find? Q
  9. Sorry.... Bisley. Bisley 12g 12 bore Shotgun Alloy Snap Caps x2 Product Features: • Bisley quality product. • Precision Alloy snap caps spring loaded. • Prevents damage to firing pin. • Pack of 2. Q
  10. When this has happened in the past, the second cartrage has not been struck. I have done the misfire drill on each occasion & then broken the gun... Maybe if (when) it does it again I should keep the gun at shoulder and just see if it fires a second time? Q
  11. I have just tested her out on some new snap caps.... The un-pitted top barrel pin left a deep precise round hole in the snap cap's centre, where as the hole that the pitted pin left is far more random and uneven and not as deep. So I feel that maybe the pin isn't striking the cartrage cap in the right place with the necessary force needed...!? Perhaps......? Q
  12. artschool.. I shall be down the local ground on Friday morning to test out the verious theory's & whatnot.. I will keep you informed of how things progress. To be honest, I'm very happy with her regardless of this little hiccup. I'm sure it will all get sorted. Q (x)
  13. How very interesting WINCHESTER SX3.. Please keep me posted on what happens. Cheers Q
  14. Cheers Shaun4860. Very helpful indeed. HDAV.. Thank you very much for all your posts... Very much appreciated. Q (xx)
  15. Q x The bottom firing pin looks like it has a very small dent in it.... could this be the problem? Q
  16. DAVD_B... I think I love you!! Will let you know Thank you Q xx
  17. Cheers poorpeet.... is your trigger guard a little wobbly? Q x
  18. Thanks for that Q xxx Cool beans... Q x Indeed...... Q
  19. I do hope that you are right in your diagnosis..... This will be on my mind over the next few shoots Q
  20. I usually do fire from the bottom first (so to speak), but depending on the target/choke, may sometimes start with the top…. But it seems to happen on the 2nd firing on the under barrel. The 725 is a mechanical system, but would it also rely on some inertia?? The gun isn’t new, I bought it privately two months ago…. Just wanted to find out if other users had any similar problems..? I`ll concentrate on it for a few weeks and see what happens….. Then either call Browning and/or a gunsmith…. Cheers Q
  21. Hi HDAV The cartrages I use are Comp X 28g. It seems to happen on the bottom barrel, when fired 2nd. So far it's happened 3 or 4 times & only with me. I've looked it up on the Internet & it looks like quite a few people have had the same kind of problems. Q
  22. Hi all, Just wondering if anyone has had any trigger resetting problems with their 725. If so, what was the problem and how did you get it sorted? I`ve had mine for 2 months now, and am beginning to think that I maybe experiencing a few “misfiring” issues….? …..Or is it because I’ve been wearing gloves? Please help. Q
