    Would love to but sold my shotgun three years ago after my first and last duck season, would actually like to have a go a clay bird shooting one day if I decide to buy another shotgun

    Well hunter308, good choice by the way , I still have and cherish an old BSA Majestic 308 granddad gave me for my 21st. Infact it's the only high powered rifle I have!!
    If you are keen we can probably find you a gun for a days sporting clays.
    We have a Compak shoot coming up at Burnham on Sunday 23rd.
    Room for unregistered shooters as well as the die hard sporto's!!`

    I can make a fool of myself without shooting clays. In fact I do quite often.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
