    Went to my first proper clay shooting setup at the weekend.
    Shot forty birds, two twenty's.
    Nerve wrecking with a dozen seasoned campaigners standing watching!
    But the range master was patient and in total control of safety, and helpful with tips about where I was missing. Give me a "show pair" for each ten so at least I knew where to look :D
    Barrel of the AyA gets surprisingly warm after twenty.

    Scores?
    7,8,5& 3.
    So not going to worry anyone for a term yet!

    Will i be back?
    Course I will.

    It's good to hear you enjoyed it. Once you start at the clays it's very hard to stop it.

    I generally won't fire any more than twenty shots in quick succession because as you know the barrels become very hot, also you may have noticed a heat wave on top of the gun which can distort your vision down the top of the barrels.

    Best of luck with your new hobby.
