One of the things i have always hated when cleaning any shotgun is when you push the cleaning rod down to the barrel and get to the chokes, and when you get to the chokes you have to give it a harder push to get them through and end up ramming your fingers or knuckles into the ejectors and they take a chunck out of you. To solve this i have made a handle that fits over cleaning rod end it has a guard on it to protect your fingers. The handle is just glued in place and also give a bit of an extension to you cleaning rods which helps when cleaning a 32" 10 bore. Here are some pics of the set up.

Try sikaflex i used the clear stuff for fixing the seams on my neoprene waders and its held up great, its the same sort of stuff as stormsure but you get tons more, just store it in the freezer once opened. https://www.screwfix.com/p/sika-sikaflex-ebt-hybrid-sealant-adhesive-black-300ml/79299

Ok i have taken the link down if any one wants one just PM me

Buy some 12 bore subsonic cartridges, open them up carefully preserving the crimp empty out the lead shot and refill with bismuth and recrimp, the reloading purists migt be against it but it will work fine

i had the exact same thing happen with hull cartridges the same ones in 410, change your brand of cartridges

I dont need the bushes just the measurements of the 1 5/8 and the 1 3/4 bushes

No its the shot bushings, the 1 7/8 bushing is just the tag, its just the hight i need of the 1 5/8 and the 1 3/4 bushes

I am looking for the hight of the 1,5/8 and the 1 3/4 bushing in mm if anyone can help out the, 1.5 oz bushing is 15.4 mm i just need the other ones. thanks...james

My favorite is when they tell you they have a Working Cocker Spaniel, when they really mean is its an unemployed Cocker Spaniel.

I know thats why i did'nt go last year, you could recoup your entrance fee with the saving in carrage costs

I patterned my 410 using 15 grams of no7 tss it has the sameish amount of pellets as my 10bore with 45 grams bbb shot, the shots were taken at 40 yds, and the 410 patterned ok not super tight i was quite happy with the pattern. On the sound side of it when i first used it my dog used to run in at the sound of the shot (she was very keen) but when i used the moderated 410 she just sat there i had to tell her to go out, it took a few shots for her to realise what was going on and then she was back to her super keen self. Afew weeks ago when i got the goose with it my friend that was with me said all he heard of the shot was the hiss through the air of the pellets and the "bang" from the gun was just like someone giving the ground a kick, a dull thud.

I use Baikal hushpower in 410 with tss and although it is full choke it seems to do well i have used 15 grams of tss in size 8 loaded subsonic, it is very quiet and athough i have only used it a few times this season, i have managed to drop a Pink with it, dead when it hit the ground. There is a channel on youtube "smallborehunters"? he uses a pump in 410 that is moderated and does well with it the guys a pretty good shot.

£40 a kilo seems a bargain do you have a link to SSM International?

When i was out wildfowling last week i found no empty cartridge cases but plenty of discarded tampon aplicators , there is a lot more than shooting plastic being dumped out there

Why do people feel the need to slag off and critisise a post that someone makes. I have a Zabala side by side magnum and it takes 3" steel cartridges Zabala also do a 3.5" side by side and that will take anything you are brave enough put through it. Fippermaj's gun will take the Eley steel cartridges no problem, the only potential problem he might have is if he puts BB or larger shot through it ( but they dont do a BB) so that rules that out. Just because a gun is not "steel proofed" does not mean you cant fire steel through it, there are shooters in Demark that use steel (carefully) in damascus barreled guns i wouls love to see the comments if that was posted on here.
