I finally got a hold of some Federal Tactical 00Buck and was able to try them from my new Norinco 97 Trench Gun. From 10-12 yards it looks like they group fairly well. My POA was right at the bottom edge middle of the grouping. The two big holes to the left are where the wads impacted.

Sorry for the orientation of the picture, I still haven't been able to figure out how to rotate the pic, then save it in that view.

That's an amazing backstop you have there fella! Your garage doors must be thicker than our'n! ;)

How many rounds did you fire into the plates? At least three? I take it you were aiming for middle of center plate?

"Your garage doors must be thicker than our'n!"

They are not THAT thick - I have to replace them every hundred rounds or so.
:rolleyes:

You are correct - on both accounts. It was three rounds, in about six seconds, POA was the center of the middle plate.

The Norinco is pretty good, but it needs some finishing work. I slice the side of my thumb on the edges of the magazine well opening. They are almost Ginsu-knife sharp. Need to break the edge there.
