SKBs are thin on the ground in this country, and sell quickly when theyre advertised. Spreader loads sent me straight to google. Might be equally difficult to find in bricks and mortar, but they do sound interesting.

Stan and 12brd have combined to convince me that I need to try the gun I have, with the load I know, at skeet before I do anything else. Being a total newbie at clay targets, I simply presumed Id be wasting ammunition, putting it through those tight pipes at skeet targets. No one at the club Ive visited has told me more than, Well, youll hit some. But now. Knowing 125/125 is theoretically do-able with similar constrictions, and having a gun I truly enjoy shooting trap with, have made me keen to try it as soon as our filthy autumn weather permits.

Very glad I asked.
