    i wasnt really going to do clays with it, i figured i could practice unitll i got my own gun, but i suppose if i liked it then why not... do 12 bores not have quite a kick in them? Dont be worrying about the recoil at all, this sometimes makes people quite nevrous re shooting. Hold the gun well into you shoulder and lean in and you will be grand. Now it has got a bit of kick but if you do the basics you will be grand and will hopefully enjoy it. Might be worth your while to meet up with some regular guys that shoot and go throught the basics with them or get a lesson or two.

    Id go for a 12 bore O/U its what i started off with about 16 or so years ago when I was your age, you will be well able for it. As has been said go to your local firearms dealer and try as many shotguns as you can, remember its all about fitting you right. Take an experienced shooter along with you to see what way the gun is fitting you when it is mounted. A nice secondhand Lanber or a baikal (workhorse of guns). Try stay away from yildiz they kick like a mule :vava: have heard some bad reports on them. Good luck with everything RH

    Plus one with Snap Shot Your rifle is only as good as the glass that it wears.. Usually

    If they are anything like the .223 rounds you wont have any problems at all, my tikka t3 lite shoots great groups with these usually half inch or all touching if i do my bit.

  18. riflehunter
    Fair play nice few there, it looks like its going to be a good summer for the rabbits my area is full of them over here.
  19. riflehunter
    Wam Fox call are pretty good, i believe Wet aeroboard (the tight type) on glass is very good never used it doe.
  20. riflehunter
    If money was no option id go for the sako, but seen as it is I think you have answered your own question you will have a few bob more for a nice bit of glass. I have a tikka t 3 lite in a 223 and cant fault it iv heard some great reports about the varmint.
  21. riflehunter
    Try as many brands as you can, my marlin 17hmr likes fedral the best a close second would be hornady both in 17 grain. Remington and cci were very poor groups. Get a box of each and see how your rifle fares out.
  22. riflehunter
    Id go for a 243 over 308, use the smaller grain for foxes and the larger for deer. A 308 just for foxes you might be getting a few raised eyebrows when you apply for it, but you never no.
  23. riflehunter
