libs Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 Went today and I can say it was well worth the hour drive! Loads going on and a hugggeee amount of stalls with great stuff. Had a big row with the mother this morning who said, and I quote, "what kind of idiot would take their gun to a fair??" (she is actually terrified of guns and hates to hear about my shooting or have anything to do with it) So I didn't get a chance to shoot........ A twelve bore anyway!! There was a guy with a stand and loads of black powder muzzle loaders, So I got a shot with an 8bore percussion shotgun, and a shot with a very light 8 bore flint lock blunderbuss both packed with 2 oz of lead!! Certainly rattled the teeth! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferret Master Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 Libs, what was the format regarding clays if you just roll up with gun and cartridges. This I understand is our plan tomorrow. FM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
libs Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 By the looks of things thats how it works. There was plenty of mesh-backed waistcoat wearing people with funny glasses on and they appeared to just be walking up to the stands with their cards. They did have carts for sale there aswel.

Ferret Master Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 OK thanks, sounds like we will be joining their ranks tomorrow then. FM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
libs Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 Good luck and do PW proud! If you can make it have a go on the old muzzle loaders. Its something like 8 quid for a shot on an 8 bore blunderbuss and another 8 bore, really is worth it just for the experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferret Master Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 All 8st 10lbs of me is well up for this. Although I will see how my head is as I actually didn't go to bed last night due to a party and am feeling it now. FM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
