    Impressive Mitch, both the group and the fact that you have a 100mt indoor range...............................now I really do have envy of you there mate I was looking at the 110 last week and the more I look at it, the more I fancy one. Phil

    This is like how long is a piece of string and my thoughts are with you. Firstly, I will say that I have been clay shooting at all levels for over 40 years trying all manor of combinations to get the highest result possible but the bottom line is to test any combination over a period unless of course your test fails immediately. Distance to target has a bearing and providing the clays are within 15 - 50 yds, 1/4 & 1/2 will do you very well HOWEVER you will find tighter chokes will produce a longer shot string giving more chances of hitting the clay. Many top shooters use 3/4 &

    I have a Chrony F1, with shades if you are interested ...................................£60 posted http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Chrony-F1-Chronograph-Suitable-For-Rifle-Air-Rifle-Paintball-And-Archery-/122545549829?epid=1805078971&hash=item1c8848b205:g:peUAAOSw1x1UMtiu Phil

    Will you take £600 for both. Please confirm the barrel length on the 20b Where do you live. To be very honest with you, I am looking to buy a new trap gun tomorrow which is for my wife so it will depend on how the deal goes as to whether I can afford yours as well and will confirm after I have sorted things tomorrow.

    Just found some Hawke high mounts so I will chuck them in as well as they are no use to me Jimmy. Phil

    Following on from the sales thread, if you need a scope Jimmy, I have a brand new Hawke Vantage 3-9x50. No good to me without AO function, if Si picks it up on his way south or north, it is yours or ethan's mate with my compliments. Phil
  8. philpot
    Good going Si. I assume the led lamp on the Chrony gives a decent and reliable light for using indoors. Do you mount one on each shade. I bet they are tons cheaper than the Chrony ones, where did you get them Si, a link perhaps mate. Phil
  9. philpot
    Ah, I should have known better. Sorry, I don't have another laserking mate but may have another scope floating about if you need one. Phil

    You two at it again and of all things Jimmy, a LAMINATED STOCK, what is the world coming to.............................. Phil
  11. philpot
    To be honest, I only use the case to transport the gun and never leave the gun in the case or bag, just in case (excuse the pun) there is any moisture on the gun which will turn to rust in the case. Phil

    Oh dear Mark, you do make me laugh. Phil

    Spot on Si, that prosport is certainly up for the job. Phil

    Quote '.25 - might as well throw a brick underarm - awful trajectory.' Except when it has 47fpe pushing it along then it has a better trajectory than your sub 12 .177 Zero at 25mt-----------1/2 a mildot hold over at 60mt, AA fields 25.4gr, job done Phil

    It is way to high when you consider all I am wanting is to find shot quarry that cannot be found in crops / long grass so the Pulsar is not in the frame but thanks. Phil
  16. philpot
    Well they are well beyond my reach, it will have to be a cheapo on an my pension, I can say that for certain. Phil

    Thanks Mitch, that was not the one I was thinking of but the link went onto a review of the Seek Vs Flir so even better info. I am going to have to get something this year and unless there is a dedicated unit at a really good price, one of these will do the job. I like the seek for it takes it's power from the phone rather than having it's own battery as the Flir although the Flir does seem to have better detail and functions. I will see how things progress through the year because there are going to be a huge increase in demand for thermal imaging in normal working life not jus

    84 degrees here with no wind, just popped down to the farm, about 100 crows dropping in on the freshly cut field but just too hot for me. I fitted a 5mt Thule wind out canopy to the back of the house, 3.5mt in depth so it is warm shade and gin/tonic today and bugger the shooting although I may be tempted to have a walk out about 10pm for a few bunnies as I know someone who wants some.

    I think everyone here should feel somewhat privileged to have the ability to enjoy our passion for shooting. Phil

    I remember reading some time ago that you could buy a device / camera that along with some software turned your phone into a thermal spotter, has anyone here got one or tried one out or even remember who made it. From what I recall, it can be used to find dead quarry that proves to be difficult to find after being shot dropping into crop etc. Now I don't have a dog and I'm not getting one and started thinking about this unit as my pigeon finder.

    Try JSB Exact Jumbo RS, a lighter pellet that worked really well in my Wildcat .22 and my son in law's BSA Ultra XL with an improvement to trajectory and kills. Phil

    I think you are right Mitch, I do recall seeing a property series on TV about Sankbanks and it's place in the world standing for prices. Phil
  24. philpot
    Sandbanks, the most expensive real estate in the UK and with good reason, a stunning place............................ no envy on my part however Phil

    This takes me back Mark, in fact I recently found some old photo's of my shooting exploits going back around 47 years ago which may give you a laugh. A day rook shooting in Derbyshire with my old work mate, Rick Bestwick and a morning flight on the edge of the marshes at Tetney, North Lincs. My parents had a caravan at Humberstone Fitties which you can just make out some of the buildings in the background. Look at the hair style, oh to be that young again. Phil
