After puchasing my new shotgun last wednesday,a lovely brand spanking new Winchester SX3 ,which i was eagerly waiting to try on Saturday,Dave K from the topgunners had arranged for me to meet him on the Saturday ,but to my dismay the heavens opened ,all day long it rained .

Sunday came ,nice and dry ,we met up to put the new gun through it's paces .

Setting up on the edge of a barn near Stratford Upon Avon ,sheltering from the wind we set up the crows decoys ,wasn't long before they started coming in,Dave started up with a couple of good shots ,hitting one high and one full on ,I got my first shot off ,missing,wasn't long though before i got another chance.

Hitting a lovely crow entering the pattern .Both of us had some good shots ,not to mention a very high magpie ,which we both put claim to.After a few qiuet times and dodging the showers we ended up with about 34 crows and 1 magpie,

I must say the Sx3 is a delight to shoot ,light ,hardly no recoil and very fast,a good gun for the pigeon shooter .

Even Dave K WAS IMPRESSED . :)
