And another four years on and nothing has changed apart from Deerstalker shuffling off his mortal coil.
My shotgunning is still rubbish. I may sell the shotty and just stick with my rifles.

Trouble is, rifle shooting and shotgun shooting do not go together. If you shoot a rifle a lot the temptation is to shoot a shotgun the same way and you can't. If you try to aim with a shotgun you're always going to miss behind, as if you're pointing right at a moving target when you pull the trigger it won't be where you've aimed.
With a shotgun it's always 'don't shoot where it is, shoot where it's going to be'.
Take limited notice of me though, as I've only been clay shooting about a year and I'm still very much a C class shot (averaging in the mid 60's).
