Well good evening boys n girls .

 

Did anyone get out in the end ??? , I went out today shooting at one of my permissions , I set out to have a day pigeon shooting but alas the birds did not want to play , so I pulled out the crow decoys and had a whale of a time , it was a bit blustery but that made it all the better .

Started off with 4 plastic decoys , and just made a pattern as the day went on .

 

in fact I had that much fun today im off out again tomorrow ha-ha

 

The A400 went like a dream , really getting into it , my bag for the day was all follows .

 

6 pigeon

 

19 jackdaws

 

26 rooks

 

total bag 51 for 67 shots

 

and for those interested I was using 32 gram RC sipe fibre wad with a full choke ,

here's a video of some of the shots

your notice the bit where i wouldn't shoot the crow till it started to fly off , it couldn't move in the wind , so i was shouting at it , and it was yelling back at me , then as it started to fly i shot the ****** .
oh and what i thought was a jam ,,, i forgot to put a 3rd shell in it ......... doh

 

hope you enjoy

 

regards stevo

This decoying lark is just too easy for you it seems. Good shooting, but why not take on something more challenging to you like singing solo on 'Britain's Got Talent'?

haha I wouldn't say I find it easy , im just lucky . and its when I see other people shoot , and listen to the knowledge they have gained ,its then I realise I still have a lot to learn ( even after 30 yrs )

one thing I have learned is , shooting is a perishable skill , you have to keep at it and try harder and harder just to keep yourself to the level YOU think you are .

 

but thank you for the kind words everyone .

 

regards stevo

Stevo, the subject in your post suggests you've had the A400 fitted.

Is that right? If so, how did you get it done?

By going to my gunsmith . And spending a couple of hrs . And adjusting comb height . Cast . Lop .
