    Scope

    I have a .243 and I put a bushnell legend hd 4-14-44 was on my air rifle Looking st a scope under £600 noticed recommended for .243 searches are e.g. 3-12x56 will I be wasting money as the bushnell is a great scope or will I notice a huge difference on a Yukon jagear nightforce zeis terra?
  2. Perfect John just back to sea today so see how weather holds
  3. Hi John Didn't have time Put laser cartridge in poor result so tried the gold E and was bang on So took a box cartridges to try gun on some clays and great improvement so I'm very very happy now and have a gold E which I new was going to happen:)
  4. I bought a new silver pigeon game gun lefty My son has a rizzini and there's much less recoil with his shotgun Going to try a gold e today and a lesson see how things go then get a fitting
  5. Thinking of going for a gun fitting My question is do you get your measurements and then send gun and measurements to a gun smith or you have to buy new with measurements Thanks
  6. 243 variation just arrived only took 1 week👍 Can now watch from a longer distance on my bait
  7. After 4 months managed to get a pesky fox Yes I'm not the best So I bought a cam and set up a bait point filmed for 2 night for nothing Next day decided to change position only to see the rabbits were taken grrrrr So about 7pm I was driving up to another field and two bright eyes appeared in the middle of the next field I've see a couple on this field lately but never to get a shot away So cam is up and a large bait Drove up last night at 6 hidden behind a wall As it got dark started to get annoyed by cows wandering about Then watching the bait threw nv monocular about 20 meters away a fox runs past no chance to get gun and lamp ready So thought he's heading for bait Then 10mins later I let out a couple sqeeks on caller Then it was like a squeak echo The little **** killed a bunny in the bushes So gave up Check cam tomorrow see what's on it Hopefully not red kites they stole my bait before Hats off to you guys with better field craft and toys Ps tried hand squeeking Eh not good Stewart
  8. Went to lays with my son I have a new silver pigeon Wasn't hitting much and cartridges kept sticking and would eject so back to shop to get fixed Used my sons gun started hitting more clays even though he still beat me I enjoyed his 28inch razzini Maybe just maybe I chose the wrong new gun Strange
  9. Gun cupboard was a mess so last night decided to tidy up and it's spotless Decided to go to clays today No keys Yes I never separated the keys on my holder Hunted everywhere And bin man was today Seriously need a slap Grinder and new cabinet seems to be my only option
  10. Think the mount is ok Just struggle for following the clay passing and pulling trigger I'm Seing clay and rushing to try and hit the clay
  11. Ok been shooting clays only a few times I always shoot gun mounted Now I have been practicing my gun mount most days and infront of the mirror When I try it at clays I was told I'm just snap shooting at target It's frustrating me and I'm not hitting the clays So is this because I'm too eager and not fluent I'm also mounting in house and following the cornice in the room Stewart
  12. Great help at sgc and have a new beretta sp lefty Now to practice
  13. Used a miroku for 100 clays first lesson and second lesson 50 with miroku and then 50 with a beretta The beretta was the one I enjoyed the most
  14. Sporting and clays 60/40
  15. Luckily I have someone to keep me right its just a thought that the name will be more important than the fit in your mind
  16. Wednesday going with a friend to look at my first shotgun Was thinking if I don't look at side plate and just go on feel and fit would it be a cheaper offering? Or does the draw of the known brands make you feel like it's the right feel and fit because of its name? Just wonder what I'll end up with
  17. I'm going to make a target plate easy enough done at workshop Help needed and questions So I set up 20m from plate with sons rizzini m/c and set of chokes fire at centre with both barrels? Or top or bottom barrel? If for example he shoots and is left or right each time of target or above or below then I need to buy an adjustable butt pad? Thanks Stewart

    Update I was lucky enough to get a couple of hours at ashcombe growing yesterday with my friend and his dad coaching.had fun which is important after all it's a hobby.didnt do as well I feel as last time but think that was down to being tired.started ok poor once my brain kicked in and then I changed from a miroku to a beretta just to try and maybe it's my slim build but it felt better for me.back again next week for a couple hours and then get help on gun choice.i was getting better once I opened my body up Didn't help my mate seldom missed but I just concentrated on his stance and the way he held his gun and then mounted and tried to copy him and with help from his dad I had a big smile when I left the ground which is the main thing
