    Shotgun people

    Hi all,

    So, I went over to my local range today, nobody else about apart from some idiot taking pot shots at wood pigeons at about 75 to 100 yards in the wheat fields surrounding the range.

    Having rung the necks of three injured birds hiding in the firing points I decided to have it out with this idiot as he was making my **** absolutely boil by this point!

    Long story short, he packed up and went home in a huff after a frank discussion about his cruel behaviour and total lack of understanding regarding the effective range of a 12 bore shotgun!

    What is it with 'certain' members of our shooting community, who think their 12 bore is capable of humanly shooting birds at 100 yards!

    They don't seem to understand they are using a crude firearm that hemorrhages energy before it even leaves the muzzle.

    40 yards absolutely tops...
