and took 4 pheasant and 1 woodcock. Missed a whole bunch to!
I used my pedersoli 12g that you have seen before and used 1 1/4oz loads and a little less powder by volume. I used card wads but as we had a raw dry cold wind the fouling would get hard and so I used every now and then a greased 1/2 fiber wad to soften things up again. I used no5s shot but to be honest I feel sure that last year on this same shoot I did better with 7s (which I think is more like your 6). I think the pattern is to sparse espeicialy for woodcock.
I was the only M/L there today and I was pleased with the comments of support from the other guys
The gun was used on Wednesday too and left powdered since then but fired perfect at the start of today.
Swabbed the barrels out with water and then boiling water and greased her up when dry, 15mins.
You wing shooters should get one and put the skill back into your bird hunting
