Sounds like Golf!
Cheers chaps are snap caps only for use when dry firing? I have seen them and didnt quite get the point.
Also whats special about a cartridge bag? And whats a fibre optic bead?

A good quality cleaning kit.
Suitable gun oil - I tend to use legia mostly.
Snap caps - Some say you don't need them, but I had a firing pin propel itself down the barrel whilst dry-firing.
Decent gun case or slip.
Good pair of hearing protectors.
Cartridge bag if you're doing a fair bit of clays.
Lots and lots of cartridges
Some of the popular things to get which I've never seen much point in:
Fibre optic bead.
Clay shooter's vest (again, if you're doing a lot of clays, might be useful)
Cartridge belt - Can't really get used to using them.
