    Because you have, deep down, already decided that you HAVE to own one, knowing how much good, honest, unbeatable FUN you will have with it.👍

    Safe Loading Devices

    Unless I’ve missed it, if all the experience on this forum, has anyone had it happen to them or personally seen it happen. Because in over forty years shooting I haven’t.

    Weighing (lead) balls

    Seems to me that, if weighing your balls makes you perform better. - whack ‘em on the scales!🤪

    Parker Hale and other 2 piece Loading Rods

    I don’t use the rod belonging to the rifle but a three-piece brass one I made myself with an aluminium muzzle guide. But then, I only shoot on formal ranges where carrying extra kit is’t a problem

    Hello from UK

    Welcome to the madness from Plymouth, UK. Jim is right, look at the MLAGB, I don’t shoot BP clays but many do and you might enjoy the companynof others. The explosives licence shouldn’t take long, and, its free. You need only get an approved box. Nothing bears the smell of freshly burned...

    Parker Hale P58 Naval Rifle

    I use the Lyman 575213PH which I lube, swage down to .566 and then make into a cartridge, effectively paper patching it. 45 grains of 2F work well out to 100x with very little fouling. (No swabbing up to thirty shots) For 25 yard practice indoors I use 35 grains. This gun is so much fun to shoot!
