Please find below the Amendements & Clarification of Rule 4.2.6 (Double on Report), by Hugh Smith:
 
Double on Report:
 
When shooting doubles on report if you miss with the first shot and then the referee calls "No Bird" on the second target i.e. a broken second target or Gun/Cart malfunction of the second shot. The referee will now call "No Bird first shot established repeat to establish the second shot".
 
Previously the referee would have established the first target lost.
This now also allows the referee to score both targets (one and one) should the competitor break both of the targets with the second shot.
 
However, if the competitor misses the first target and then addresses the second target, which for any reason the referee declares a 'NO BIRD' the competitor will not be allowed to shoot the first target with the second barrel but must repeat their initial actions.
 
In other words:
 
The competitor will not be allowed to deliberately miss with their first barrel and shoot their second barrel at the first target however, If both targets are broken with the second shot the referee will score one and one.
