  1. You need land or would like land? ASking like that won't help you on here mate. There are a lot of other people in the same boat as you. No one will give it to you when they don't know you or anything about you. If you want land i suggest either: Knocking on farmers doors in the area and being polite or Joining a shoot or being a beater
  2. £10 delivery is fine and much better than £41. I'll just get other components from Siarm and use clay and game or FES for powders and primers and bits. 2000 for a £100 is an absolute bargain too. That'll keep me in subsonics and game loads for quite a while. Thanks for the info
  3. Thanks for the help guys, very much appreciated. I was looking at buying some 20 gauge ones as they are so much cheaper than from clay and game bu they don't have any without primers at the moment. I don't want to pay £41 for explosive carridge
  4. I am looking at some empty new hulls in 20 bore and noticed at series of number that I was unsure of: I.e 20/70/08 I know that the 20 refers to the bore 70 is the cartridge length What i am unsure of is the final number which 08 or 16 I had seen the cartridge hulls on the Siarm website.
  5. How many guns will it hold? And what's the dimensions? Please. Interested in it
  6. I've got a 1958 browning twelvette double auto. Lovely semi that is rapid to reload. Got it at a bargain price of 200 quid
  7. Hi and welcome. I live just outside side Sheffield towards Barnsley.
  8. I love my Mossberg 500 pump 20b. Its great for the pigeons, especially with the hushpower barrel. Can be a bit front heavy but you get used to it and its great with the 26" M/C barrel too. Cost me 500 quid with both barrels
  9. I'll take a larger on if you have any left please
  10. Absolutely I'll be in touch if I can sell a few bits that'll give me the funds
  11. Wish I could buy this gun I'm after one but just don't have the funds at the moment
  12. You can PM me or give me a call if you want any help or info. Happy to help Daystate 177 I know what its like to have a dog that is hard work (mine is a 8 stone american Bulldog who now walks to heel.)
  13. I have a large dog and had issues with this for a while. It didn't help that he was also stubborn. I had a police dog handler/trainer help me with my dog. I used a slip lead to correct his pulling too. If you are unsure how to fit it properly I'll tell you what I do. Get one that has the leather stopper on the lead like Ancol have on their leads (or something similar). Put the slip lead over the dogs head and ensure it is high up the dogs neck just behind the jaw line. There is a slight indentation in the dog where its neck muscles end and the jaw/head starts. This is where the lead should sit firmly so it doesnt slip down. If it slips down the neck it starts to pull on the chest area where the dog is strong and encourages him to pull. Once you have the lead on correctly and out walking there should be no tension on the lead when the dog is walking where you want them. If the dog starts to pull say NO! in a firm voice and then give a correction on the lead. A correction would be a short sharp tug with the lead across your body (as if pulling from your hip to opposite shoulder). This will pull the dog towards you under control as you will have control of the dogs head and not trying to fight his whole body weight. keep doing this every time the dog pulls but relax the lead after a correction and when the dog is doing what you want. Also initially praise the dog when he is doing what you want with a treat or pat/stroke. You need to reinforce the good behavior that they show. Nothing will work instantly or after 1 session, its takes time and patience from yourself to get this right. Don't lose your temper as its not the dogs fault if he doesn't understand something they haven't been trained to do. As mentioned above its all about timing with dogs and the effort you put in will be rewarded with a dog that does what you ask.
