  3. Hi guys and girls, I have to do a business project for school whereby we need to think of something new and then pitch it. I wanted to look into the shooting/fishing area and have allready had a couple of ideas but i was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on something that might make any type of shooting/fishing easier/better? Many Thanks Blacta :(
  4. I was thinking a Hatsan Escort Magnum for the money.....anyone recommend anything else? Cheers Blacta
  5. i use a SbS and find that if the birds are not silloueted, they are harder to lock onto but i still get around 1/2.5ish. when i was younger i used a single barrel 410 and was quite a hotshot so i thought i may try a single barrel again but with 3 shots! is it easier to shoot with? Cheers Blacta
  6. what would you all recommend then? And 2nd hand or new? I will try one first! dont worry...but i have allways just been keen to have one!
  7. Just wondering what people thought about semi auto's for pigeon shooting in comparison to SbS and O/U? Cheers
  8. They are brilliant rifles, have one myself! light powerfull and pokable! what have you put under the forestock? i did something like that to protect it but it fell off! Blacta
  9. not sure where to get that but seems like im sorted! Cheers
  10. about 15cm, its quite a big bushcraft blade that was once my grandfather's in the army so i look forward to restoreing it, would a reddy kind of dark wood be possible? How much would i owe you? Cheers Blacta
  11. do you have any spare of the other woods? Cheers
  12. Thanks for that but anything i could get from the countryside?
  13. I was thinking of a darkish wood? Whats best? Any help much appreciated! Cheers Blacta
  14. Shot 20 on sat and going out again on friday......loads of them about down here!
  15. I never said it didnt shoot pheasants at 50 yrds....but thats usually using the second barrell which i think has a tighter choke as the first still hits but is not as effective
  16. I think you may have it there as it is a old gun but takes pheses beautifully!
  17. if someone could please just nip out and measure them that would be great, im hoping to make them tomo.......... Cheers Blacta
  18. thats why i put a price on, i dont want them to go to ferret food!
  19. no when i quote with clays and pheasants its with this gun! Really annoyed me and i couldnt work out what it was due to shooting at those 4 on the ground, seeing the pellets kick up and then it just flies off!!
  20. not sure its a fixed 12 sbs but i would have thought it was the usual but just seemed a bit wide, will try dads 12 on fri and get some 32g's! Anyone use 7 shot? Blacta
  21. Going to make my own pigeon floaters out of 6mm steel, Just wondering how wide the wingtip - wingtip is if anyone could measure theirs and the point - wing bar, Thanks Toby
  22. as stated, 2 hens and a lame cock bird about 3 yrs old hybrids but great looking birds Cheers
  23. I went shooting on saturday and shot 15 But i wounded quite a few and im sure it wasnt me as it was the first time i was using my brothers W&S SbS 12 decoying pigeons but having regularly shot 35/50 clays and lots of pheasants with it i dont think its me. Also i shot at about 4 on the ground at 30 yards and saw the dust kick up around them in a wide circle, to see them fly off!! :icon_eek: Could it be the choke? I was using 30g 6 shot clear pigeons, i was wondering what others use? Any help would be great, cheers Blacta
