What a test match it'll be if Jimmy gets just one more wicket, a true great of the modern game. As for that innings by Alastair Cook, one saying just sprung to mind which I believe is quite fitting, 'Form is temporary Class is Permanent.'

I'll give it a try, much appreciated.

Evening folks, was wondering if anybody had come across this problem before, midweek I was plinking in the garden with my Prosport but my groups were to the left with both jsbs and falcon pellets, however when adjusting the horizontal turrent nothing changed group wise. The scope is a Hawk Map pro 4-16x50 AO, I have been researching via Google which threw up some interesting ideas, one was to give the scope a tap in front of the turrets to 'free' it up, never heard of that one before. Any ideas? Cheers

Good to hear Al, my lab wouldn't retrieve a pink when out training, first goose he retrieved out in the field? A Canada

Personally I thought it was a good idea, if some don't like the idea of using a pigeon try and substitute it for another bird. Big Al, have you tried using superTed to spur the new dog on?

I agree with Tightchoke, trying it on to see what you're made of. Surely nobody could be that stupid to ask to use your land then charge you for the odd few pheasants you shoot.....actually I take that back, some of the silliest folk I've met have been whilst pheasant shooting.

The ducks I saw on the 1st certainly didn't present a sporting chance, they were too high!

If you're referring to Chris Gayle then I would certainly rate Alastair Cook over him as a test batsman, some other great names mentioned though. I saw a stat on tv where he only averaged 27 in his last 25 innings, a shadow of his former self, to some his style of play might appear a bit boring but to me his mental toughness could only be admired when he first came onto the test scene, his performances in the 2010-11 ashes were pretty darn special. Hope he finishes on a high, a player of his class deserves it.

With your success with all gauges mate I think the only way you could offend people is if you used a spud gun.

Ah yes the speed thing, thought that thread got a bit interesting 😆.

Thanks Wayne I must admit I prefer a dense pattern, I might get some BB steel to try instead and see how I go. Would you stick with 3" for BB or 3 1/2"? As I've mentioned before I'm still fairly green on the reloading front so I'm keen to see what works for others. Hi anser2 I use a kicks high flyer Full in my Xtrema2, although I haven't shot many geese the ones I have shot have been at decent ranges with eley lightning 1s.

Cheers mate I must admit I did think about loading for the 10g but got plenty of 12g shells to try 1st, I'll PM you about those shells. 👍

Evening Boyd, as ever I appreciate your advice, I'm not desperate to try them I just found some old posts on here and wasn't sure if people still used them. You know I've had success with eley lightning 1s in the past I just wondered if there were any real advantage to bigger shot. 👍

Cheers Figgy, must admit I hadn't thought of the size of the shot taking up a lot of space thus reducing the payload.

Afternoon all, I was wondering if anybody uses BBB steel loads in a 12 and how they get on with them? I'm currently sorting out my next list of reloading components to order and was curious what shot to get. I have a few HW13 shells kindly loaded by a member off here, I've personally loaded some 3" steel 1s and 3s and was thinking of getting some 3 1/2" cases to load bigger steel but thought I'd ask on here first to get people's opinions, cheers.
