Had a great time today. Weather was ok, targets presented something for everyone although I agree that, due to the local topography certain types of presentation were missing, but overall a really enjoyable shoot. We went round in about 3 hours and everything ran smoothly. I think Mike and Debbie Faux put on a good show and should be congratulated

Who is the other one Azzuri .....? Lol A five hour round trip and shot like my cataracts had cataracts. Spennymoor is an extra hour each way and even if I don't go I will still be the second placed Merseyside shooter. Although I have to say they were excellent targets and a really nice shoot.

No!

A great shoot at Hodnet. Excellent reffing, a great variety of targets and a good shooting day. All topped of when I placed third in my class©, so that's got to be a good day . Great to see so many familiar faces from PW enjoying themselves and yes Chard, you did get me and Roman the right way round this time.

I too enjoyed the beautiful weather and good company of my fellow PWers Went round with Roman (as usual) and IanE (stood well upwind as he was coughing a lung up for most of the day, and would not have the good grace to die quietly). That made Ians 81 all the more impressive, Roman a respectable 74, and yours truly had a 'mare on stand 12 hitting 1/10 (I believe I'm in good company timps ) giving me a soul sucking 68 (ah well the bubble was bound to burst sooner or later). Still it was worth the admission money to watch Beretta in full on Yoda mode. I don't know about victorys - i think he was firing lasers. Clouds of orange and black dust were the order of the day. Well done Mr P - still got it - even if you don't always get it out these days :lol: Andy

Mr Potter Mark H is Roman and was very disappointed with his score even though he was second in C class. I'm Andy S (Maxus) and when I left I was leading C class with an 82. I do like the nice weather:). Left a few out there, but isn't that always the case. Well shot to Chard and Mr P. I believe Brett shot 96. The guy is a machine.

Thanks Ian, I learned at the feet of the master. Class win but more important shot well after the disaster that was shugborough the previous week. Now what will I spend my winnings on ? Maybe a down payment on a Muller Choke from Nicky T

I have already written my letter of resignation, and plan to live in luxury on my winnings for the rest of my days.

I hope to follow in the footsteps of one I. Edwards for the next 6 months :good: :D

Manchester today. Shot with beretta and Roman. Real pleasure to watch beretta smash his way to 94, I had 71 when I left - but rumour has it after some problems with stand 9 it was scratched from the shoot - as I managed a 7/8 on the stand I am a little peeved but I know there were a number of unhappy campers there today.

This has to win some sort of prize for being the most informative and comprehensive reply to a vague question ever !!! Top Marks Mr P :good:

True. I know it was childish but I couldn't resist. I still watched the whole 13 minutes - which is as long as I've looked at any bush.

Nice bush

Awww **** :look: :look: :look: I was hoping for floating bin lids.

I'm tied 70th :good: Not even fired a shot - may just leave it there.

What the manufactures say is that they maintain an even pattern out to the 30" diameter not just the 20" hotspot.

Which cartridges in particular did you try? Andy

Thanks Gordon I too have seen this happen infact I know you have had a similar problem where the thread descended into you being personally abused, and as a new shooter I'm keen to learn from those with more experience than me. I certainly never would intentionally insult anyone, unfortunately this is usually why I am a post reader and not a post poster. I just felt having shot the Mullers I had points that the OP would find useful. Andy

:lol: Chard and maxis sittin in a tree K..I..S..S..I..N..G

All of the assumptions you made about my post are incorrect and I apologise if that was the impression given. I was not making a dig at anyone my comment about "putting it in the right place" was in relation to previous posts stating that the chokes you use are less important than being accurate with your shot (with which I completely agree). Of course i didn't think you assumed they were £200 each, I was merely stating a fact - I'm not sure all those reading the forum do know where to get them (although I know you do) What I was trying - and obviously failing to do was stop the thread being about what everyone prefers choke wise, and stick to the question the OP asked about peoples opinion of Muller chokes. Please accept my apologies for any unintended slur. I have read that 80% of all communication is non verbal and this kind of miscommunication just proves that. I can't even find a suitable emoticon?? Andy

What does that mean?

I don't think anyone is trying to convince anyone else to change what they find best for them. The OP simply asked for information on the Muller chokes. Not what everybody else does or finds useful, just what those with experience of Muller chokes found. The consensus from those who have used them seems to be they are light, easy to clean, easy to use, and produce strong kills (when put in the right place) they currently cost £50 a pop if you know where to look. Andy

I spent a pleasant afternoon yesterday comparing my new Mullers to invector plus extended chokes in my cynergy. Up front I will say I love the Mullers. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder but I like the looks. They are ridiculously light and so I suppose this may be an issue but I had no problem using them and brownings extended chokes are very heavy. Most importantly they gave really good kills especially at distance targets. Once again I know if you put the shot in the right place every time this is not an issue but my feeling is they do throw a lot of shot in a tight pattern, dusting even distance targets. Which is a nice feeling. I would definitely give them a thumbs up

That looks like the sheep I accidentally "grazed" at Fauxdegla at the weekend

Azzurri By Berretta I mean't Brian for some lessons - or do you mean he is responsible for your loss of form :lol: Andy
