Category: Sustainable Ammunition Day
BASC invites you to join them on a try sustainable ammunition day at East of England Shooting Ground on 12th December.
The purpose of the day is to ensure you are informed and comfortable as we make the transition away from lead shot.
On the day you will be greeted by a member of the team, have your gun inspected ensuring it is suitable for steel shot. You will then be briefed on the various types of cartridges available with different wadding systems. You will be given an update on the UK reach process and have any question you have answered.
You will then be given a selection of cartridges based on your intended quarry/discipline and handed over to a BASC coach who will take you shooting.
Once you have finished shooting you will then be invited back to have further discussions and talk about the cartridges used.
The cost is £25 for members and £35 for non-members and should take no longer than 1 hour.
Please ensure you bring your shotgun certificate with you on the day. Guns must be nitro proof, chambers 65mm or longer, be either 12 or 20 bore and choked less than half.
To book, please email eastern@basc.org.uk or call 01244 573032.
