Vegard, I wanted to start my son shooting (9 years old). I bought a full size 28 bore AYA No.4 and had the stock shortened (kept the sawn off bit for later obviously). I took him out to shoot some stationary targets to start but pattern was rubbish. I was using 15 gram loads, moved up to 21 gram, no probs. The first partridge shoot we went on I shot a few and told him the next one was his. Unfortunately when it came it was almost straight over, slightly right to leftish, but bloody high. I thought "First shot on a moving target at that height...no chance but what the hell". You can imagine my utter astonishment when the little bugger plucked it out of the sky with one shot !! The Spaniard on the next peg whooped and I nearly cried. Lovely little guns but I´ll stick with a 20, I can´t shoot well enough,
best
Mike
