    Nah, I have one coming, should have been here yesterday, today, didn't arrive.
    That's why I'm keen to find out about yours,
    You seem pleased with it which is encouraging.

    I don't claim to be an expert, but grew up with shotguns. There is nothing to criticise, it's solidly built and knocks birds out the sky. It's almost too nice for the rough and tumble of duck shooting. The H&F price is unbeatable which is newsworthy in itself!

    I put this together for the Invector+ chokes. While all manufacturers and indeed barrels vary, it may help you depending on what you're used to. Very happy with the IIII and IIIII chokes for close range pond shooting, hit everything!

    Thank you sir.

    The only one I could find was the sporter with a factory adjustable comb.
    May look a bit silly in the blind but I'm still pretty keen on it,

    Well, keen enough I traded my Maxus for it.

    I'm on my third season with my MK10 20g. Its my main gun so it is completely abused in every way, which makes me glad I didn't get fancy wood!

    Got it sorted today
    the pins that the stock goes down on, the front one was loose, anybody used to an adjustable comb would have sorted it straight away
    I stumbled on it this morning.
    Patterned at 25, 30, 35, and forty yrds today with 3" No 3 shot steel hunting loads, Gamebore and Winchester.
    Seemed the Winchester gave better patterns close with the more open chokes, the Gamebore better out further with tighter chokes
    Interesting day.

    Have the pattern 2 thirds of its entirety above aiming mark if you are intending it for mainly field use mate.

    You can always raise the comb if you are going to shoot mud pies later on.

    I always shoot a flat gun at anything but it could be frustrating for someone not used to it.

    I just had the stock tightened down. I'll have a to talk with people locally who now about setting this up
    It's quite interesting how little number of pellets actually get inside that 50x30cm square at a measured 40yrs with a modified choke and 3" steel hunting ammo
