Shoots are getting softer and more people are getting a decent level of coaching, also your average club/registered shooter is shooting more now than they ever have done. That's my take on it

Correct, but he has adapted it very well as you can see! Shot with him a couple weeks ago very capable lad.

He mounts like that due to central vision

Warter priory isn't bustingly high 28g 6 or 5 will be fine

The idea that it is as simple as telling someone to stop doing something is nice but in reality not much help. You need to highlight the underlying cause of the problem and address it- unless you know what you are looking for you will just dig a bigger hole that takes longer to climb out of. Get help. Also correct me if I'm wrong Hard focus but haven't you had lessons with Ben and possibly Matt H? Perhaps I'm miss remembering things...

They are copper

Just keep it locked in the case in hotel room when not in use

I expect that could be the case

More upper/mid range than pigeon shell,, not asked re velocity but sure they will be similar to all the other game loads, possibly driven grouse of my gut instinct is right!

Very easy I do it all the time just get an EFP. Some countries (Portugal for example) want a letter of invitation too, so get the club you plan on visiting to send you one. Not all airlines will fly guns so check into it before you buy tickets.

Just spoke to the main man only a short run, and you will be pleased to know the only stock they have left is... You guessed it 30g 7s so if you are a big fan of that loading speak to your dealer and ask them to bring a load in with the next order as they are ready and waiting to go but will not be repeated.

I think they aren't a long term load, no details in all the new catalogues that are about to go out and I've not had a my to try, I would say it might have been an end of season run but I'll keep you posted. Most of the guys from Hull are in Germany at the mo for IWA so might be a couple days before you get anything back.

Pigeons- up to 50 yards a 28g 7.5 is more than enough. I've shot thousands with these (and 8s) over the years and they do the job admirably. If I'm roost shooting and know I will be taking longer shots (regularly past 50 yards) then yes I'll go to 5s but also up the load to 34-36g.

Good reply Lewis well done if you ever come further south (eg grimsthorpe) and can give me a few months notice I'd be happy to try and arrange some help. www.edsolomons.com

Once you play around and find what you are happy with you can get a good custom stock with nice timber from midland gun services for circa £1500 and it will be spot on. If it's a long term gun id avoid the adjustable and go custom. Keep old stock if you ever do want to re sell.

Is expect more than one jump this year stock up now!

Mater eye is not fixed can alter with tiredness dehydration stress etc. also can be purposefully changed in most people over time if the desire to stick at it is there.

Malcolm Jenkins in Luton is very good. I work at sporting targets 5-6 days a week so could take a look between lessons if your struggling

Hull driven Grouse are nice and soft and kill well. Even the 32s are nice and smooth- the 5.5s were whacking some awesome birds at warter priory last time I was there with a female client of very slight build.

No chance not enough demand im afraid!

Buzz I'm sure there are plenty people shooting over 1000 game shells a season. I recon I'll have done best part of 4k And there is a surprisingly large number of people shooting 20/30/40/50 days a season. I'm pretty sure Hull make more game shells than clay loads which (if my memory serves right) is quite interesting...

You don't want vari focal stuff for shooting. Lynn I'd speak to ed even if you don't go and see him he may well be able to make a suggestion to make your life easier.

Just consultation, and figures a guide as I'm not 100% sure what the current rate is.

Come on you aren't that old :-) Honestly will be the best money you ever spend, he's done wonders with mine, you don't realise how clear you can see until you get shown!

Depends what you want, the cheaper end of the spectrum you can have prescription insertsade for some frames, fully glazed randolphs are sensible money and very good, all the way up to pilla. Your mate was probably thinking of the consultation which is over 2 hours and 300 odd quid off the top of my head.
