Barrage doesn't fit all that well with I?P??SE prospector

[Quizmonster]

Kev, there exists only a handful of words which fit the letter-pattern given, none of which - as far as I can see - has anything to do with mortar attacks. This identical clue appeared here a few days ago and the answer then was definitely 'barrage'. The suspicion has to be, therefore, that Reddoor has given us the wrong letters or the wrong clue!

[prospector]

kev100 - good answer that you came up with ....... was it sarcasm or just plain rudeness?

thanks Quizmonster for your comment - and nothing more yet heard from reddoor ----

reddoor question above suggests the word that fits those letters may be -

Impasse!
