  1. If this ban came as a result of a European directive from years ago, how do the Dutch manage to be able to shoot Crows and Pigeons, they are in the EU https://www.youtube.com/watchv=tFYDR7NwQcs This guy does a great job of knocking down Crows and Pigeons, if its ok in Europe it should be ok here.....we havent left yet
  2. Well done i hope they look at the film clips you linked to and show them on TV. We know how much Packham likes to protect Raptors, but one evening in my garden there was a hell of a racket from a group of Magpies at a Cherry tree, the next morning i found a Buzzard dead at the base of the tree killed by a mob of Magpies. What would Packham do if his precious Raptor population went into decline because of his actions.
  3. We bought an Argyll 12 bore single barrel from the catalogue our first shotgun that was about 73/74
  4. Has there ever been a post that you dont have a bitch about! This i a UK post about stuff we have over here , it was educational, interesting and well filmed just get over yourself and watch it without having a dig at it.
  5. Thanks for that i have really enjoyed the wildfowling clips you have done on youtube, it makes a change from the American stuff we usually get to see. Well done keep them coming.
  6. I agree with you entirely thats why the editor of Sporting Shooter magazine should NOT have published an article criticizing ANY other form of shooting.
  7. You should try and get a day out in a punt and you would see the difference between the two methods of shooting/hunting
  8. My answer to the writer of the article, would be you could get any Joe off the street and give an hour long clay lesson and then stick him out on a driven shoot and he would probably do ok. Give him the hour lesson and give him a punt and tell him to go out and shoot , the difference between the two would be very interesting ,if he survives it!!!!.
  9. I know i saw it, its wrong to call Canadas vermin. they might be annoying in some situations but know vermin no matter what the law says.
  10. Go onto Duckhuningchat and look for a guy called BT Justice he has written a book on 10 bore loadings and that has 10 bore light loads with a list of ones that will or will not cycle autos. Its money well spent.
  11. It is a lot of powder but i have loaded it and shot it and it was ok, its 2 grains more than the 10 bore load but that is pushing 42 grams of shot.
  12. Here is the Data from Claygame on SSB150 steel shot crimp finish. 12x3.5" primer cx2000 powder 36 grains SSB150 wad multi metal 3" 1/8 felt o/s shot 35 grams. speed 406 meters per second ,pressure 744bar . average from 5 shot string. 12 x 3" primer G1000 Maxam, powder 43 grains SSB150, wad B&P 32, shot 32 grams. speed 446 meters per second, pressure 535 bar. average 5 shot string 12 x 2 3/4" primer cx2000 powder SSB150 32.4 grains. wad VP65, shot 30 grams, speed 426 meters per second, pressure 536 bar. average 5 shot string There is no mention of what shell case they used but i would think that the ones with cx2000 primers were Cheddite and the one with G1000 primers is the 3" Maxam case that Claygame sell. The 2 loads with cx2000 primers were tested at the London proof house and the G1000 was done by Claygame inhouse testing
  13. Claygame have load data sheets for this powder, if you contact them they should send them to you
  14. I am off work tomorrow so that is my morning sorted. i really like the videos that the Gunshop do on Wildfowling its nice seeing UK stuff rather than Waterfowling from the USA. KEEP THEM COMING
  15. The side safety is one of the hallmarks of the Greener guns if you look here https://www.wwgreener.com/ you will see pics of some of the guns that have this feature. I have only ever owned one of the GP Greeners, i would love to have the money to own one of their side by side guns preferably in 10 bore.
  16. Are you talking about a Greener side by side shotgun that has the safety mounted on the side or the Greener GP that also has the safety on the side, they are both completely different guns.
  17. I had got my hopes up as well when i saw the mention of copper, but then i found out it was just copper coated lead.
  18. Another benefit with the Loadall is you can change from 12 to 16 or 20 bore quite cheaply, i have also managed to convert my 12 bore one over to 10 bore and it does a good job on the 10's
  19. The Poudre T powder in the checkered tin has loads in the Shooting times reloading book (1979)? it was mainly used in low velocity/heavy loads in lead with 12'10 and 8 bores. I remember trying to get some in the 80's but in those days with no internet it was really hard trying to source items
  20. The Lee will handle high brass shells, you will see a modification in this video
  21. You should look at joining the Tay valley wildfowlers club they should be able to help you out, also search the forums for wildfowling on the tay it should come up with some pointers

    Waders

    I wore the Hybrid waders for the first time yesterday, it made the walk carrying a ruck sack with decoys ,hide etc much easier than with the usual rubber waders, i was'nt wet with sweat at the end of the day and the fleece hand warmer pocket was absolutely brilliant as it was chilly in the breeze.

    Waders

    I have just got myself a pair of Daiwa Hybrid waders, they have neoprene legs and a breathable body i will be wearing them for the first time tomorrow, i will let you know how i get on with them.
  24. What sort of load data would you use with these, would you be able to pick a load that uses plastic wad and sub one of these wads? it would be nice if you could
