    I think its a shame he didn't show us the accuracy before and after. The wiggle it about a bit method seemed a bit random but its accuracy that matters. If I ever do mine I'll leave an extra half inch in case I need it sorted professionaly... H

    [quote name='RicW' timestamp='1301389837' post='1993614' Hacksaw blades anyone? There is a youtube video of a guy restoring the crown of a rifle using a brass round headed screw in a power drill with a bit of grinding past. The chap who always ends with 'and thats the way it is'. Seems to me his catchfrase sucks. Ah, found it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OorpZlG28fI H

    Thanks Guys, as always you have been very helpful. Does anyone know which end of the chamber the barrel length is measured from should I decide to make it as short as I can? No particular reason, but sometimes I get the urge to experiment... Cheers, Halam

    Wayne Asked me to put these pictures up for him. I had to resize them so if you want better ones you can still ask him for them. Halam

    CZ 452 manual I read said you should not cut down the barrel because you would lose the accuracy given by the choke. It seems to me the modern shorter barrel is the most compelling reason to buy a modern CZ. Has anyone tried cutting down a longer cz and how did accuracy compare afterward? Cheers, Halam

    Today I'm in luck because while I was out I was intercepted by the Manager of the next farm who wanted to know what I was up to. We had a chat and he has invited me to shoot over his bit as well. I couldn't help thinking of this thread and it seems to me its worth asking the guy who had to send you away if there is anywhere else he can think of where you could ask to shoot. You never know your luck and he may feel like he owes a bit of help. When you go calling it will be so much better being able to say so and so suggested you ask rather than being a complete stranger. Think of finding

    If you find waiting for the rabbits to come out boring try to take an interest in whats going on around you. Learning a bit about bird watching and nature stuff makes it all a lot more interesting. Countryfile is pretty poor mind you. Find out about the history of your land, what are the trees and other plants, try and figgure out why they are as they are. Daydream. Once the novelty wears off you will chill out and you wont care if you see any bunnies. The countryside is your natural enviroment and waiting for your prey is an instinctive part of hunting so it will beacome easier once you

    I cant buy a gun by how it feels in the shop. I get so exited which totally suspends brain function so I buy rubbish guns and have fun sorting them out.

    A couple of times I've shot bunnies which have turned out to have a layer of fat between skin and flesh. At least I think its fat. Any reason not to eat them as normal? Cheers, Halam

    Shotguns don't have proper sights like rifles so it's important that they line up naturally - this is called gun fit. Take a lesson to understand fit and eye dominance and get you hitting a few things then think about what you want th gun for. My way was to buy a cheep (£50) over and under without too much choke to see if I like shottys or not. Turns out I like shooting clays but prefer a rifle for bunnies. 12 bore is cheapest to feed, smaller cartridges don't sell in such numbers. Halam
