  1. Dryfire practice

    in Clay Pigeon Shooting

    Posted

    Our school/college shooting team has just bought one for practice throught the winter months when we cant get to a ground in time (before sunset)

     

    I take it home most weekends and during holidays mostly to practice my ABT, coincidence or not my scores for ABT have gone from a C class to an A class in 3 months using it whenever possible

     

    Regardless of the discipline it can only help and although the initial price seems quite high, if you work the numbers if you get the whole wammp which will set you back about £900, that would get you at the current prices call it 2500 clays and carts, in the 3 monts we've had it ive shot over 9000 shots at it myself.

     

    Although it is no replacement for the real thing, if you can afford it, i would highly reccomend it

  5. Worcestershire Gun club

    Hi,

    I Used to shoot there quite a bit but since ive been driving ive been going out to the shoot in Kinver a bit more as they dont require a 17yr old to have an adult with them to shoot as a junior:yes:

     

    I suppose after shooting there for a year or so its time for a change but all said and done I still think its a very nice ground and the targets are excellent for what started out as a small pub shoot. As you said, the targets there can get quite testing at times but they always seem to be hittable (except for 2 far loopers a couple of weeks ago :yes:, that stand landed me with a 64 which i suppose isnt too bad).

     

    I think my best and worse there are 88 and 34! I'm not sure whether that shows the variation in the targets or my incosistency :D (a bit of both me thinks...although hopefully more of the first one :good: )

     

    Hope you didnt fall asleep, got a bit carried away there

  8. Webley 800 semi automatic

    I have the right hand version in walnut. Nice gun by all accounts. I had a bit of bother to start with with a dry stock which caused it to crack a small piece off, this was fixed quickly and effectivley and I had it back in a couple of weeks. Seems to cycle pretty much everything from 32g pigeon loads down to 24g training cartridges.

  19. First Regisered Skeet

    in Clay Pigeon Shooting

    Posted

    Went up to Oxton Shooting school in Nottingham at the Weekend with school. Shot a practice round on the Saturday and shot 94ex100, my best yet. Got to the Sunday for the registered shoot and shot 81! I think i just let it get to me and i kept leaving the targets too long as well. On the last range I shot 15! I havnt done that bad for years, the worst thing was I couldnt even blae the targets as they were set perfectly!

  20. Escort Vs Webley & Scott semi auto's

    in Guns & Equipment

    Posted

    I switched to a semi about a year ago when my dad bought the escort, went for a shoot and I was hooked. I then bought the Webley 810 in walnut and I hae to say for the warranty and service you get from Webley I would choose the Webley. between the two of us we have had less probles with the Webley regarding cycling. If a beretta was on offer though... go for the beretta :oops:

    the best i've heard was at mid wales. A rather stocky welshman was on the 5th peg with four others. All I heard as i got off the bus was: PULL!...bang...PULL!...bang...PULL!...bang.bang...PULL!...bang...BAA!!...bang

     

    very funny at the time, could have been one of those things where you have to be there but there you go ;)

     

    another one is a teacher at the school i go to and when he shoots skeet he does a mix of a bark,. pull and buuuuuh lmao ;)

     

    I tend to stick to a quick sharp PULL! ;)
