1) " Clay" -- As it applies to Clay Pigeon Shooting For the town in the United States, see Clay, New York. Clay is a generic term for an aggregate of hydrous silicate particlesless than 4 micrometers in diameter. It consists of small crystals of the minerals silica (SiO 2 ) and alumina (Al 2 O 3 ). These elements, silicon, oxygen and aluminium are the most abundant in the earth's crust. Clay is generally formed by the chemical weathering of silicate-bearing rocks by carbonic acid, but some are formed by hydrothermal activity. Clays are distinguished from other smallparticles present in soils such as silt by theiroblong shape, affinity for water and high plasticity index.There are three main groups of clays: Kaolinite - Serpentine, Illite, and Smectite. Altogether, there are aboutthirty different types of "pure" clays in these categories, but most natural clays are mixtures of these different types, as wellas other weathered minerals. Montmorillonite, with a chemical formula of(Na,Ca) 0.33 (Al,Mg) 2 Si 4 O 10 (OH) 2. nH 2 O, is typicallyformed as a weathering product of low silica rocks. Montmorillonite is a member of the smectite group. Clays hardened by fire were the first ceramic, and remain one of the cheapest andmost widely used materials to produce even in the present day. Bricks, cooking pots, art objects, spark plug tips, and even musical instruments such as the ocarina are all made with clay. Clay is also used in many industrial processes, such as paper making, concrete production, and chemical filtering. Varve (or varved clay ) is clay with visible annual layers, formed by seasonaldifferences in erosion and organic content. This type of deposit is common in former glacial lakes from the ice age.

Shooting technique Precision marksmanship in shooting competition (unlike in combat) can be achieved by proper execution of the seven stepchecklist in shooting: Stance Close your eyes and raise the gun naturally without thinking, open your eyes to see where your natural arm position pointsto. Move your feet along with your body to align the arm with the target. That is the best stance compared to pointing straightforward. Your body is less likely to move in this natural position when the trigger is pulled. Feet should be slightly apart. Theshooting arm extended with straight elbow. Proper stance for two hand shooting can be achieved in similar way, though the naturalstance will definitely be different. There are four basic shooting positions: prone, sitting, kneeling and standing (offhand). In the real world, standing is mostused position while it is also the most difficult position to shoot. Grip There should be no gap between the top of the grip and the part of hand between the thumb and the index finger. This preventslippage when the gun recoils. Sight alignment The eye, the sight at the tip and the back of the gun must align first. The front and back sights must be aligned bothhorizontally and vertically. Target alignment Align ...
