Shotgun Safety Code of Practice

The most important thing on days is that everyone remains safe at all times, which requires everyone to be mindful that Shotguns are very dangerous, if handled in a irresponsible way. 

It is up to you what load you bring but they must be fibre wad. We would recommend 21g or 24g 7s/7.5s/8s.

We tend to recommend bringing at least 300 cartridges for a day. But this depends purely on your rate of fire. Some can shoot far more and others less. 

Yes you can. However, you will need to be stood with a competent person that has a gun licence and you will be under their supervision.
