Whitebridges Posted August 5, 2015 Report Share Posted August 5, 2015 Well done you won't go wrong with a 687, one of the better Beretta's. Out of curiosity what's the pigeon shooting like on Anglesey? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ant1 Posted August 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2015 (edited) hi whitebridges not big numbers of woodpigeons on Anglesey. but plenty of ferals on the farms. not many farms grow wheat or barley around here. most of my shooting is walked up ,rough shooting, and wild fowling usually on flight lines and flashes and a few ponds Edited August 5, 2015 by ant1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitebridges Posted August 5, 2015 Report Share Posted August 5, 2015 hi whitebridges not big numbers of woodpigeons on Anglesey. but plenty of ferals on the farms. not many farms grow wheat or barley around here. most of my shooting is walked up ,rough shooting, and wild fowling usually on flight lines and flashes and a few ponds Sounds good. Thanks for the info. I've never been to Anglesey, so just wondered. Enjoy your gun and I hope you are pleased with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
