Visited Braintree SG today for the first time (for a very useful lesson
from Stuart Clark). Nice ground. Plenty of different and challenging
targets. Only downside is the hard-to-find website if you're looking for
details. So in case anyone is, here's the URL:

Why is it when I shoot club shoots I avg 68/100, I then do a reg shoot
(Risley) and hit such a low amount I can't bring myself to type it

Why is it, that the attachments never quite fit properly on rifle or shotgun
cleaning rods. They nearly fit, often screwing on perhaps one and a half

I enquired about replacing the stock on my browning 425 Grd 3, i was
quoted 550 quid. Is that right, do they cost that much ??

Why am I now getting a long list posts coming up - not long ago all I was
getting was three or four and they dropped off after a time - these now are
