  1. I,ve always kept 2 chest freezers in garage,as have my parents without any trouble
  2. Depends on what time you shot them,60 yard plus when i saw them,can,t send targets like that off top of a mountain in windy conditions,put em under power and lower so they are same for everyone,
  3. can,t say for sure if they were on every stand but definetly on our last stand of the day the simo going away pair as i was looking how many straights were on there, and ref got bit confused to say the least.
  4. we had mastercards on 2nd day on blue course
  5. The ref did ask george if he wanted to shoot first again to which george replied if i got to i will but i just shot first, then he shot first but as i saw it if he,d said no he wouldn,t have had to shoot first.

    I tried them when lead ban came in, absolute rubbish no where near as good as lead,tried em on pattern plate and it showed why they didn,t kill well,gave them away to someone. whether they are any better now i don,t know.
  8. cheers sniper,where did you buy these from and how much roughly were they??
  9. hi guys,looking to buy a couple walkie talkie,s just wondering the best or worst makes,tried some years back with varying success,s and failure,s and can,t remember the best one,s,need something that will work for a mile plus i guess,not sure if this is in the right section or not

  11. I shot 157 crows,rooks and jacks on saturday,got 2 bags of mixed shells with me,when i say mixed there,s everything in there 4s,5s,6s,6.5s,7s and 7.5s all different makes ,weights 28,30,32 and 36 grms can,t say it makes much differance through half choke they don,t like it,highest crow of the day was killed stone dead with a 7.5 28 grm gamebore clear winner,i shoot thousands per year and never even look what make,weight,size etc is going in the gun,only look when it pops out.
  12. Yea done it many times, 256,251 many 200 plus, 10, 100 plus in one season, but my most enjoyable was shooting an 88 just stood on a flightline between 2 oaks, high testing birds, had a few decoys out but hardly any committed as they were feeding elsewhere, that was 15 years ago but still sticks in my mind. The 256 was on a pea field and sticks in my mind for all the wrong reasons, i,d bought a brand new berretta AL 391 camo Auto, (2 days earlier)i,d never fired a shot through it,so turned up at this pea field,farmer said not to start shooting before 8 am cause of noise,anyway got there well before 7 and birds were pilling in, made a hide and sat in it watching bird after bird come in ( no decoys out yet) anyway 10 to 8 put out deeks got back to hide loaded up and in floated 3 customers, i thought heres 3 dead, bang 1st dead swung onto next click, gun woudn,t fire 2nd barrel and thats how it continued for an hour,i was shooting well over an hour from home, rang my mrs and she brought my over and under up and i finished on 256 but i,d missed the best part of day by then.
