Thanks crofter. I'd worked out gunfire for 25a. Do you have FERRULE for 28a?

The clue is = Iron ruler organised reinforcement at end (7) f?r?u?e. I'm 99% sure it's right.

Spot on! Fe = chemical symbol for IRON followed by an anagram of RULER.


FERRULE = a metal band, ring or cap at the end of a walking stick to protect it
