Finally got my shottie licence and a permission, so just thought id post a pic of the results of a quick one hour totter round from the little isle of wight ;)

 

my gun is an O/U igi Domino 12 gauge. with double trigger. bottom barrel is fixed half choke and top barrel at fixed full choke

The cartridges i was using were RC Professional game 30gm with number 6 shot and a fibre wad.

my only worry was that the shot didnt seem to bowl these to blighters over properly, does anyone think that i should be using different cartridges? if so what?

Get a big box and draw a bullseye on it, then shoot it to see where your shot are going if you have any concerns about not killing well <_<

Good advice I always pattern a new gun. No probs with your setup or carts mate get down the clay range and practise a bit?

I've found they don't get knocked over that much beyond 20 yards. Shot one poor chap with mixy at 10 yards and that certainly fell over!

 

Could go up to number 5 shot. With your tigtht chokes you should still get a nice tight pattern at range with them. :yes:

 

I did consider stepping up to number 5 shot :hmm: but wasnt sure but with you guys suggesting it i'll give it a go next time i need to buy cartridges :good: which is gona be soon only got roughly 50 left! PANIC!
