Thanks - email sent to that chap, although just about as far away as it could be from me. Ultralight is an interesting idea - currently I'd say that's the favourite

Thanks - excellent article and excellent points. I think pitch is definitely a contributing factor, when we were checking out fit yesterday - it's what that article says, the stock needs to be close to upside down. Her mount isn't always consistent and I think that's related. She's definitely a clay shooter - would be surprised if it were ever anything else at all Thanks again for all the opinions - more the merrier! Pete

Hi Sorry - long time lurker, making my first post. My wife and I have been clay shooting for the past 6 months and are really into it, for the past few months she's been borrowing a 20g Silver Pigeon, she needs to stick on a reversed comb raiser - but overall has been getting on well with it. We're getting to the point of plunking down the money on a new gun, but are twitchy about 12g or 20g? We'll need to spend on getting the stock shortened and the comb raised (my wife is quite small, 8 stone and 5'2" and seems to need a very, very high stock to see over the action). She's not recoil sensitive at all, but is to the weight of the gun as we're carrying it around etc. Any experience/advice? We're not harbouring illusions of Olympic competition, but would like a gun that is going to stay with us for a while, given the needed stock work. She tried a Remington 1100 semi yesterday, absolutely no problem on the recoil - but hated the faff of semi-auto loading, so that's out! Any opinions at all welcome! Cheers Pete
