    If you want to go down the route of steel shot....even just for ducks or shooting near wetland then stick with standard steel and don't shove high performance steel cartridges in there, something like a 32g 4 in steel will cover you shooting birds out to 40yards. You will struggle to find any steel for your .410 though. What is the bettinsoli choked at?

    Great thank you for the advice, it's multi choke

    What are your guns that cannot take steel shot? 

    A 2003 bettinsoli and my little webley and scott bolt action 410.

     

     

     

    Sorry to say I skipped the little arguments going on here haha. So in short it's voluntary so for pigeon shooting will still be ok... I think that's what I taken from this...

    I've watched a partridge video where he clearly swings his loaded gun through the line of guns to his right.

    Him shooting birds above the guns next to him is bad manners, unless they gave him the ok. If I was paying he wouldn't be doing it.

    I think he's doing good pushing the good that the game shoots bring to local areas. 

    It's funny watching the faces of people who shake hands with him, he won't let go of them 🤣

    I hate any videos where your subjected to music over the video. Volume down until I get sick and turn off.

    Not sure I'd be happy to take the day if he was shooting and filming, plus points the shoot will put on a good day with all the best drives, wanting to showcase their shoot and what it can give you. Bad points it's the Dave Carrie show, from pre shoot meet and greet then the lunch and dinner is him talking and doing bits to camera, that would ruin the atmosphere and conversation among the guns and guests.

    I wonder if the guns get a discount for having Dave and co on their day ?

     

    Some of the best videos I've enjoyed watching are the fieldsports Britain ones. Also the fella on the weld shooting syndicate used to put his videos on here and YouTube, Powys castle iirc with Bob the dig his black lab. Some good birds good shots hit and missed and some good dog retrieved. They were enjoyable. 

    I loved the videos with Rob the dog, really good.

     

    I do like DC one despite the music the thing that's does annoy me and others have already said about it are most of his videos he talks about the the everyday man being able to shoot these but as people have said most can't afford them and also annoys me how nearly all the cars are expensive nearly new Range Rovers etc again not very affordable cars.... I would love to have a go on one or 2 of the shoots he promotes but simply can't afford them
